ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the feasibility and efficacy of ultrasound-guided interstitial implantation of radioactive ~(125)I seed for the treatment of unresectable pancreatic carcinoma.Methods Twenty-one patients with unresectable primary pancreatic carcinoma were treated with interstitial ~(125)I seed implantation under laparotomy.The radioactive activity and the number of implanted seed were determined according to preoperative CT scanning outcomes by using the Treatment Planning System(TPS).The matched peripheral dose(MPD) was 65~110 Gy.The radioactive activity ranged 0.4~0.5 mCi per seed.A total of 10~75 ~(125)I seed were implanted with an 18-gauge seed needle and the Mick applicator under direct visualization or ultrasound guidance.Gastroenterostomy or cholangiojejunostomy were performed in 8 patients before or after the implantation.Postoperative external radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy with gemcitabine was carried out in 2 patients. Stent placement was conducted in 2 patients preoperatively and postoperatively, respectively.Results Out of 15 patients with abdominal pain,complete and partial pain relief were obtained in 7 patients and 7 patients,respectively,at 1~3 postoperative days,the response rate being 93.3%(14/15). Except for 2 cases of loss of follow-up,there were 5 cases of complete response(CR),7 cases of partial response(PR),5 cases of progressive disease(PD),and 2 cases of no change(NC).Of 19 patients,the median survival time was 5 months and the 1-year survival rate was 26.3%.Chylous leakage occurred in 1 patient and seed dislodgement to the liver occurred in 3 patients.No pancreatic fistula or pancreatitis were encountered. Conclusions Radioactive ~(125)I seed implantation for the treatment of pancreatic carcinoma is safe,effective,and micro-invasive,being a good option of remedy.
