Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of tumoral, radiobiological, and general factors on local control and survival of a series of 361 tumors of the velotonsillar area treated by exclusive irradiation (external beam irradiation+brachytherapy or brachytherapy alone)

TL;DR: For the combination external irradiation and brachytherapy, the multivariate study for local control, localization, and the total duration of treatment are significant and for complications, only the dose rate is significant.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radiation therapy alone for medically inoperable patients with adenocarcinoma of the endometrium

TL;DR: The rate of complications had considerably diminished after 1980, as techniques improved and computerized dosimetry was used, as well as the number of patients treated by curietherapy alone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Postoperative brachytherapy alone for T1-2 N0 squamous cell carcinomas of the oral tongue and floor of mouth with close or positive margins.

TL;DR: This approach is associated with high rate of locoregional control and low risk of chronic sequelae, obviates major surgery, avoids potential sequelae of EBR (xerostomia, dysgueusia, fibrosis), and avoids treatment of second head and neck primary on nonirradiated tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonmetastatic pelvic Ewing sarcoma: report of the French society of pediatric oncology.

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of surgery and/or radiotherapy in local progression-free, disease-free and overall survivals (LPFS, DFS, and OS, respectively) was evaluated.
