Abstract

The optimal treatment of regional lymph nodes in the setting of postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy in unknown. Treating internal mammary lymph nodes is also controversial. Increased overall survival has been reported with postmastectomy radiotherapy but contribution of internal mammary nodes radiotherapy was not specifically addressed. Irradiation of the cardiac structures with photon beams resulted in increased cardiac-related mortality but this is not the case for electron beams as shown in the literature. In this present review, we summarized the literature concerning internal mammary nodes irradiation.

Özet

Meme kanserli hastalarda cerrahiden sonra verilen radyoterapide regional lenf nodlarının optimal tedavisi bilinmemektedir. Mammaria interna lenf nodlarının (MILN) ışınlanması ayrıca tartışmalı bir konudur. Mastektomi sonrası radyoterapinin genel sağkalımda artış sağladığı bildirilmiştir. Ama MILN ışınlanmasının ayrıca katkısı bilinmemektedir. Foton ile kalbin ışınlanması kalbe bağlı ölümlerde artışa neden olmuştur. Ama elektron demeti ile aynı durum literatürde söz konusu edilmemiştir. Bu derleme yazıda MILN ışınlanmasını ile ilgili literatürü gözden geçirdik.
