ABSTRACT
Primary seminal vesicle adenocarcinoma is a rare malignant tumor of reproductive system. A 21-year-old patient with primary seminal vesicle adenocarcinoma was treated in our hospital in August 2014. Without surgical treatment, the patient survived for 4.5 years after 6 cycles of chemotherapy and pelvic radiotherapy. Local recurrence was found in February 2019 and laparoscopic radical prostatectomy was performed. There was no local recurrence and metastasis after follow-up for 10 months.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To compare the therapeutic effects between CHOP-PVP and CHOP protocols for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Of 79 NHL patients, 40 received CHOP-PVP and 39 received CHOP protocol. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival rate and Cox regression model for prognostic factors.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The complete remission rate and overall response rate were 57.5% (23/40) and 87.5% (35/40) in CHOP-PVP group and they were 33.3% (13/39) and 69.2% (27/39) in CHOP group. There was a significant difference (P < 0.05) in the complete remission rate and overall response rate between the two groups. The main toxicity was myelosuppression. The leukocytopenia rate was 82.5% in CHOP-PVP group and 71.8% in CHOP group (P > 0.05) with no fatality in either group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>CHOP-PVP protocol may be more effective for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma than CHOP protocol without increasing toxicity.</p>
