Proton Therapy in the Treatment of Anal Cancer in Pelvic Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Case Series.

David Buchberger1, Paul Kreinbrink1, Jordan Kharofa1.   

Abstract

PURPOSE: The incidence of anal cancer in patients with kidney transplants has increased. The definitive treatment for anal cancer is chemotherapy and intensity-modulated radiation therapy. In kidney transplant recipients, sparing the pelvic kidney in the process of delivering radiation to the anus can be challenging. Intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT) has been proposed as an alternative to intensity-modulated radiation therapy for the treatment of anal cancer in this population, given its increased ability to spare organs-at-risk. CASE SERIES: We present 4 cases of patients with transplanted pelvic kidneys who subsequently developed anal cancer and were treated with IMPT from 2017 to 2019.
CONCLUSION: Use of IMPT appears to be an acceptable option for the treatment of anal cancer in patients with a pelvic kidney. ©Copyright 2019 The Author(s).
