Outcomes of aggressive treatment in esophageal cancer patients with synchronous solitary brain metastasis
(2017)
The aim of the present study was to investigate the outcomes of esophageal cancer (EC) patients with isolated synchronous brain oligometastasis (oligo-BM) treated with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) of the primary site and localized ...
Three Dimensional Conformal Radiotherapy and Androgen Deprivation Therapy in Patients with Clinically Localized Prostate Cancer; Hacettepe University Experience
(2015)
The aim of this study into evaluate the treatment results of three dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in patients with clinically localized prostate cancer (CLPC). Between ...
Correlation of Clinical Risk Factors with Diffusion-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Images in Prostate Cancer Patients Treated with Definitive Radiotherapy
(2015)
This study is aimed to correlate apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values and clinical T-stage, serum PSA, pathology Gleason scores. We also further analyzed whether ADC values could be used to appropriately define the ...

Isolated jejunal metastasis in a patient with cervical cancer: A case report
(2015)
Background: In approximately 8% of cervical carcinoma patients, gastrointestinal tract is involved, most commonly the rectosigmoid portion, because of local extension. Isolated metastases to small bowel are exceedingly ...
