- W1998299941 abstract "External beam radiation therapy often is avoided in the treatment of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) in young children because of the long-term sequelae. Conventional brachytherapy can reduce these problems, but its use is limited in young children because of radiation exposure to parents and care-givers. This is the first reported use of high-dose-rate remote brachytherapy (HDR) to treat RMS in young children.Seven young children with RMS were treated from January 1990 through September 1991 with multiagent chemotherapy, organ preserving surgery, and HDR. The primary tumor sites included the tongue, buccal mucosa, chest wall, vagina, and clitoris. A minimum peripheral dose of 36 Gy HDR was administered in 12 fractions (twice a day) at 3 Gy per fraction for a period of 3 days. The treatment was given on an outpatient basis without requiring prolonged patient sedation or immobilization. Each treatment lasted 2-5 minutes.All seven children are alive and without evidence of tumor with a median follow-up of 30 months (range, 18-35 months) from diagnosis. The treatments have been reasonably well tolerated with some acute skin toxicity. There has been relatively good organ growth and function during this short follow-up period.The use of HDR radiation in these patients eliminated radiation exposure to care-givers and permitted constant nursing care and interaction among the parents, nursing personnel, and child. Treatments can be given on an outpatient basis, without requiring prolonged patient sedation or immobilization. Local control of tumor with preservation of organ function was achieved. HDR in young children should be restricted to controlled clinical trials until long-term morbidity and efficacy results are obtained from pilot studies." @default.
