ABSTRACT
Objective To provide theoretic rationales and clinical experience for post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD ) by comparing the characteristics of PTLD in kidney and hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients and reviewing the relevant literature reports .Methods Twenty-seven adult PTLD patients from 2000 to 2017 were retrospectively reviewed .There were 11 kidney transplant recipients (KT group) and 16 hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients (HSCT group) .Clinical characteristics and outcomes were analyzed between two groups .Cox's proportional hazard model was utilized for evaluating the prognostic factors .Results The incidence of PTLD for KT and HSCT groups were 0 .5 ％ and 1 .1 ％ respectively .PTLD patients of KT group had a later onset than that of HSCT group (105 .1 vs 3 .1 months , P<0 .01) .Also Epstein-Barr virus was less frequently detected in KT group (36 .4 ％ vs 81 .3 ％ , P< 0 .05) .The 5-year overall survival was (46 .8％ ± 10 .5％ ) .According to Cox analysis ,application of antithymocyte globulin (ATG) and high ECOG scores were risk factors for a poor prognosis of PTLD .Conclusions Most cases of KT-PTLD have a late onset . In contrast , HSCT-PTLD has an earlier onset and a higher incidence of EBV infectious .And application of ATG and high ECOG scores are poor prognosis factors of PTLD .
ABSTRACT
Objective To analysis of the efficacy and toxicity of multiple primary cancer of esophagus in three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy and concomitant chemotherapy.Methods Fifteen cases of multiple primary carcinoma of esophagus who refused the operation were collected.The Elekta linac 6 MV/10 MV X ray was used to conformal irradiation in three-four coplanar wild,2 Gy/time,1 time/day,5 times/week.The dose to the target area,CTV 40-50 Gy/4-5 weeks,GTV 60 Gy/6 weeks.TP scheme (paclitaxel+cisplatin) was used in the first day and 29th day,three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy initiated in the second day after chemotherapy.Results 1,3 year local control and overall survival were 86.7 ％ (13/15),33.4 ％ (5/15) and 73.3 ％ (11/15),26.6 ％ (4/15).Class 1-2 and class 3-4 acute radiation esophagitis and leukopenia occurred rates were 86.7 ％ (13/15),13.3 ％ (2/15) and 80 ％ (12/15),20 ％ (3/15).Conclusion Radiation therapy is the better treatment method for multiple primary carcinoma of esophagus when proximal lesions located in upper thoracic and cervical high.Toxic and side-effects can be tolerated of three dimensional conformal radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of multiple esophageal cancer.
