Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the second most common form of skin cancer. In most cases, non-invasive SCC has a good prognosis and is curable by surgical resection. Nevertheless, a small percentage of patients pose specific management problems due to the technical difficulty of maintaining function and aesthetics because of the size or location of the tumor. An emerging therapeutic approach with high-dose brachytherapy using a nonsealed rhenium-188 resin, commercially known as Rhenium-Skin Cancer Therapy, has been shown to be highly effective in non-invasive carcinoma, up to a thickness of 2-3 mm.
皮肤鳞状细胞癌(SCC)是第二常见的皮肤癌形式。在大多数情况下,非侵袭性SCC预后良好,可通过手术切除治愈。然而,由于肿瘤的大小或位置导致维持功能和美观存在技术困难,一小部分患者会面临特殊的治疗问题。一种新出现的治疗方法是使用非密封的铼-188树脂进行高剂量近距离放射治疗,商品名为铼皮肤癌治疗,已被证明对厚度达2至3毫米的非侵袭性癌非常有效。
