OBJECTIVE To document the incidence and timing of radiotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (RINV) in the treatment of bone metastases among patients receiving prophylaxis with a 5-HT(3) receptor antagonist. METHODS Patients receiving single (SF) or multiple fraction (MF) palliative radiotherapy (RT)

Four years following resection of a Clark's level IV malignant melanoma, a 50-year-old man developed widespred metastatic disease involving the liver, bones, brain, gastrointestinal mucosa, and lungs. One week after whole brain radiation therapy, he was admitted to the hospital for nausea, vomiting,

The aim of supportive treatment is to minimise the toxic effects of antineoplastic therapy. More useful new drugs are now available for the management of chemotherapy induced anaemia, neutropenia, and nausea and vomiting. One can include the treatment of bone metastases with biphosphonates.

OBJECTIVE We evaluated the novel combination of aprepitant and granisetron for the prophylaxis of radiotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (rinv) among patients receiving moderately-emetogenic radiotherapy for thoracolumbar bone metastases. METHODS In this single-centre two-arm nonrandomized

UNASSIGNED Duodenal metastasis of testicular cancer is an uncommon condition in clinical practice. Here, we have reported a case of this nature. UNASSIGNED Testicular cancers are among the most seen cancer types among young men. Metastasis of testicular cancer generally occurs through hematogenous

BACKGROUND Nausea and vomiting are common symptoms in patients with malignant disease. Several, sometimes rare causes have to be considered to decide the right treatment. METHODS We report of a patient suffering from advanced breast cancer and complaining of severe nausea and vomiting over several

Melanocytes arise from the neural crest and migrate to the epidermis, meninges, uveal tract and ectodermal mucosa. Normal gastric mucosa lacks melanocytes. A 64-year-old woman presented to us with nausea and vomiting. She had a past history of invasive primary mucosal epithelioid malignant melanoma

Animal studies have indicated a "vomiting center" situated in the dorsal portion of the lateral reticular formation of the medulla at the level of the dorsal nucleus of the vagus. There is also a chemoreceptor trigger zone in the floor of the fourth ventricle in the area postrema which influences

OBJECTIVE To validate the Brain Symptom and Impact Questionnaire (BASIQ) version 1.0 for brain metastases. METHODS Patients with brain metastases and their healthcare professionals (HCPs) assessed the relevance of the BASIQ on a 0-10 scale with 10 as extremely relevant. RESULTS A total of 52

OBJECTIVE Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) is not understood completely. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of smoking on CINV. METHODS 121 consecutive patients who received cisplatin (≥ 50 mg/m²) based chemotherapy were included in the study. The patients who

OBJECTIVE To assess the rate of R(0) resection of liver metastases achieved after chemotherapy with FOLFIRINOX. METHODS Patients with histologically proven primary colorectal cancer and bidimensionally measurable liver metastasis, not fully resectable based on technical inability to achieve R(0)

We report a case of small intestinal metastasis from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in a 57-year-old female. The patient had undergone partial nephrectomy for a right RCC (pT1aN0M0) in June 1997. She later developed multiple metastases, in the lungs, brain, and bone, and was admitted with nausea,
