Abstract Lung cancer mortality remains high even after successful resection. Adjuvant treatment benefits stage II and III patients, but not stage I patients, and most studies fail to predict recurrence in stage I patients. Our study included 211 lung adenocarcinoma patients (stages I–IIIA; 81% stage I) who received curative resections at Taipei Veterans General Hospital between January ...
Abstract Background: Five-year survival for stage I-II lung cancer is quite low even after complete surgical resection. Current guidelines recommend adjuvant treatment only for selected patients with stage II or higher disease. ...
Materials and Methods We analyzed gene expression in frozen lung cancer tissue from 59 selected patients who had undergone surgical resection of NSCLC. These patients were divided into two groups: group R, patients who had a tumor recurrence within four years, n=37; group NR, patients who remained disease-free four years following initial surgery, n=22. ...
However, there are many special tissue damages in clinical practice, such as tissue defects after surgical resection of bone tumors or skin cancer tissues. It is necessary to remove the remaining tumor cells before repairing the tissue defects to avoid tumor recurrence. ...

With the paradigm shift towards minimally invasive approaches, IO is taking a more prominent role in the oncology realm, as it is less invasive than traditional methods and approaches, and interventional radiologists often find creative and innovative ways to treat lesions while minimizing the impact of the intervention. While the surgical resection of tumors ...
KEY TAKEAWAYS The standard of care for aggressive brain tumors is resection.1 Adjuvant therapy (chemotherapy or radiation) is recommended when surgery is unable to remove all traces of a tumor.1,3 The most common method of adjuvant radiation treatment is fractionated EBRT.1,3 Radiation travels from outside of the body through the skull and into the brain, exposing healthy ...
CURRENT STANDARD OF CARE The current initial standard of care for aggressive brain tumors—either primary brain tumors (ie, tumors that originate inside the brain) or metastatic tumors (ie, tumors from cancers that originate outside of the brain)—is maximum safe surgical resection. After surgery, a follow-up treatment, also referred to as adjuvant ...
Presently, they rely on pre-operative surgical navigation technologies, such as MRI, in order to determine the contours of the cancerous tissue to be safely removed. These surgical navigation systems, in conjunction with surgical microscopes, can generally identify the tumor bulk, but fail to identify the extent of cancer cell invasion in tissues ...
