Abstract: This hypofractionated radiotherapy schedule appears to result in acceptable toxicity and manages successful and long-term palliation of hematuria in most patients.

“…The present study shows that the use of hemostatic radiotherapy is effective and provides excellent primary bleeding control, with an overall rate of 89%, varying from 80% to 100% depending on the site of bleeding. The rates by site are comparable with the bleeding control rates reported in other isolated series of palliative external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) for gastro-intestinal [9] , [10] , [11] , urinary tract [12] , respiratory tract [13] , and gynecological origin [14] . At the time of publication, our study is the first report on hemostatic RT which includes extremity and H&N sites.…”

“…представили результаты паллиативной ДЛТ 44 больных РМП РОД 5,75 Гр (1 раз в неделю), 6 фракций до СОД 34,5 Гр. Купиро-вание гематурии наблюдали в 91 % случаев, положи-тельный терапевтический эффект сохранялся на про-тяжении 13 мес [16].…”

“…Представлены результаты применения различных режимов ГФ: РОД 8,5-7,0 Гр, 2-3 фракции до СОД 17-21 Гр [8][9][10][11]; РОД 5-6 Гр, 1 или 2 фракции в неде-лю до СОД 30-36 Гр [12][13][14][15][16]; а также РОД 3,0-3,5 Гр, 10 фракций до СОД 30-35 Гр [9,17,18]. Как следует из опубликованных данных, применение подобных схем ДЛТ у больных РМП позволяет достичь палли-ативного эффекта в 40-70 % случаев.…”

“…There is substantial evidence that palliative radiotherapy (RT) is effective in the management of bleeding, with reported treatment response (i.e. that bleeding would stop or diminish) varying from 45% to 100% [2] , [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] , [7] , [8] , [9] , [10] , [11] , [12] , [13] , [14] , [15] , [16] , [17] , [18] , [19] , [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] , [25] . It is, however, not clear which RT schedule, with regard to fractionation and total dose, is most ‘optimal’ (with as less fractions and less toxicity for the patient and as much as possible effect on symptom control) to manage bleeding.…”
