Objective To summarize the efficacy and the feasibility of 125I seed implantation for recurrence cervical lymph node of head and neck tumor after radiotherapy or radiotherapy plus neck dissection. Methods Thirty-six patients with the recurrence cervical lymphnode of head and neck tumor after radiotherapy (17 patients) or radiotherapy plus neck dissection (19 patients) were treated with 125I seed implantation guided by ultrasound or CT under local anesthesia. The median number of seeds was 27( range from 3 to 78 ). Postoperative quality evaluation were routinely obtained for all patients. The actuarial D90 ranged from 90-160 Gy (median, 130 Gy). Results The follow-up rate was 100%. The number of the patients who were followed up over 1-and 2-year were 11 and 3. The overall response rate was 81%. The 1-and 2-year over local control rates, over survival rates were 69% and 35%, 50% and 22%, respectively.The 1-and 2-year local control rates in patients with recurrence node after radiotherapy plus neck dissection were 72% and 54%, while those were 67% and 50% in patients with recurrence node after radiotherapy,respectively (χ2=00,P=0.965). The 1-and 2-year survival rates in two groups were 48%, 13% , and 51%, 39%, respectively (χ2=0.17, P=0.676). Conclusions 125I seed implantation is a safe,minimal invasive with low morbidity and high efficacy salvage treatment method for cervical lymph node recurrence of head and neck tumor after radiotherapy with or without neck dissection.

Objective To determine the maximum tolerated dose ( MTD) and dose?limiting toxicity ( DLT) of weekly PTX and DDP concurrent postoperative radiotherapy in Chinese women with high?and intermediate?risk early cervical cancer. Methods Women with high risks postoperative cervical carcinoma, ECOG≤2 were eligible. Pelvis RT (6/10 MV X?ray,3DCRT 40 Gy/20f,para?metrial boost 10?20 Gy/5?10f) was followed by 2?4f brachytherapy applications ( 192 Ir,5 Gy/f) . Concurrent weekly chemotherapy was started at DDP 20 mg/m2 and PTX 10 mg/m2 weekly,and escalated in three?patient cohorts according to 3+3 methods. Results 25 patients were enrolled and treated over seven doses levels until dose?limiting toxicity (DLT) was reached. Median age was 48 years (range,34?66).All of patients finished RT in 7 weeks. Grade 3,4 non?hematologic toxicities were diarrhea and observed in two patients (4 cycles,DLT) at level 7.Grade 3,4 hematologic,principally leukopenia and neutropenia,and occurs late cycles. One grade 4 leukopenia and neutropenia was observed at dose level 6 but not seen in three additional patients. No one was delayed treatment time by concurrent chemotherapy.22 patients finished 6 cycles. Median follow?up is 59. 5 months. Three patients have died of cancer metastasis and recurrence. One patient has died of respiratory failure. Conclusions Combination PTX and DDP administered concurrently with pelvic EBRT can be safely administered at the MTD of DDP 35 mg/m2 and PTX 30 mg/m2 weekly for six cycles in Chinese women with postoperative cervical cancer.
