目的:我们比较了两个机构的乳腺癌切除术后放射治疗(RT)的长期结果,一个机构采用了前瞻性的辅助RT策略,另一个机构采用了挽救性RT策略。在1989年至1997年期间,69名患者被转诊到使用辅助RT的机构进行辅助RT,88名有复发证据的患者在使用挽救RT的机构接受治疗。挽救组接受RT术后较长时间间隔(中位数,40.3 vs 2.9个月; p
Purpose: We compared the long-term results of postprostatectomy radiotherapy (RT) from two institutions, one adapting a prospective policy of adjuvant RT and the other salvage RT.Methods and Materials: Between 1989 and 1997, 69 patients were referred for adjuvant RT to the institution using adjuvant RT and 88 patients with evidence of recurrence were treated in the institution using salvage RT. The salvage group underwent RT after longer postoperative intervals (median, 40.3 vs. 2.9 months; p
