    Aims: To evaluate the results of chemoradiation with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) or volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) for the treatment of anal canal cancer patients at three institutions that had advanced devices. Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed for patients treated with 5-fluorouracil and mitomycin-based chemotherapy and IMRT or VMAT for anal cancer from 2011 to 2013. Complete response (CR) rates, colostomy-free survival (CFS), disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS), and toxicities were investigated. Toxicities were evaluated with the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, Version 3.0. Results: Fifteen patients were included in the analysis. The majority of patients had T2 (53.3\%) and N0 (40\%) disease according to the staging system that was developed by the American Joint Committee on Cancer. CR was observed in 14 patients (93\%), and the median follow-up was 26 months (13-42 months). The 3-year CFS, DFS, and OS were 86\%, 86\%, and 88\%, respectively. Acute Grade 3 toxicities were observed as 6\% of hematological, 26\% of gastrointestinal, and 26\% of dermatological. Conclusion: Early results confirm that IMRT or VMAT for anal cancer treatment reduces acute toxicities while maintaining high control rates.

    The role of PET and MRI in evaluating the feasibility of skin-sparing mastectomy following neoadjuvant therapy
    (SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2018-01-01) Malya, Fatma Umit; Kadioglu, Huseyin; Bektasoglu, Huseyin Kazim; Gucin, Zuhal; Yildiz, Seyma; Guzel, Mehmet; Erdogan, Ezgi Basak; Yucel, Serap; Ersoy, Yeliz Emine
    Objective To investigate the role of positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in evaluating the feasibility of skin-sparing mastectomy in patients with locally-advanced breast cancer (LABC) who will undergo neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) by evaluating the sensitivity and specificity of PET and MRI compared with skin biopsy results before and after NAC treatment. Methods Patients with LABC who were treated with NAC between November 2013 and November 2015 were included in this study. Demographic, clinical, radiological and histopathological features of the patients were recorded. Results A total of 30 patients were included in the study with a mean age of 52.6 years (range, 35-70 years). Sensitivity and specificity for detecting skin involvement in LABC was 100\%/10\% (62\%/85\%) with MRI and 60\%/80\% (12\%/92\%) with PET before (after) NAC, respectively. When radiological skin involvement was assessed in relation to the final histopathological results, the preNAC PET results and histopathological skin involvement were not significantly different
