In a retrospective analysis the efficacy of radiotherapy in the treatment of hidradenitis suppurativa was assessed.
Data from 231 patients undergoing radiotherapy for hidradenitis suppurativa in the last years in 2 hospitals were analyzed. The patients were treated with an orthovoltage therapy unit with 175 kV, 0.5 mm copper-filtering. The single doses reached from 0.5 Gy to 1.5 Gy up to total doses between 3.0 Gy and 8.0 Gy in one series. In chronic recurrent disease 2 or more series with a total dose of more than 10.0 Gy were given.
Complete relief of symptoms at the end of radiotherapy was achieved in 89 patients (38%). In 92 patients (40%) there was clear improvement of symptoms. Only 2 patients did not react to radiotherapy. No side effects of radiotherapy occurred.
Radiotherapy should be given more consideration as a treatment option for hidradenitis suppurativa.
通过一项回顾性分析评估放射疗法治疗化脓性汗腺炎的疗效。
分析了过去几年中两家医院231例接受化脓性汗腺炎放射治疗患者的数据。患者使用175 kV、0.5 mm铜滤过的深部X线治疗机进行治疗。单次剂量为0.5 Gy至1.5 Gy,一个疗程的总剂量为3.0 Gy至8.0 Gy。对于慢性复发性疾病,给予2个或更多疗程,总剂量超过10.0 Gy。
89例患者(38%)在放疗结束时症状完全缓解。92例患者(40%)症状明显改善。只有2例患者对放疗无反应。未发生放疗副作用。
放射疗法作为化脓性汗腺炎的一种治疗选择应得到更多考虑。
