Abstract (English): Background: Superficial radiotherapy has been used with therapeutic purposes in Dermatology since the mid-twentieth century. Its main use has been in cutaneous Oncology. However, the practice has fallen into disuse for various reasons. Objectives: To report the experience in the last three decades of using superficial radiotherapy in our dermatology department, and to describe some clinical and epidemiological characteristics of treated patients. Material and method: A retrospective, observational, analytical and descriptive study was performed. Records of patients treated with superficial radiotherapy in the last thirty years of using this therapy were analyzed. Results: During the studied period 1,645 cases were treated. The gender distribution was higher for women in a relation of 1.8:1. The average age was 55.5 years. The most frequent diagnoses were: basal cell carcinoma (57%), keloids (27%) and squamous cell carcinoma (7%). The nose was the most common topography. Dermopan II® was the most used equipment, and the dose was 4,500 total accumulated rads. Conclusion: The use of superficial radiotherapy, as shown by our experience, proved to be a good tool for the treatment of several entities, predominantly in those diagnosed as a malignant tumor. However, its use was discontinued due to unfavorable conditions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): Antecedentes: la radioterapia superficial ha sido un recurso terapéutico utilizado en Dermatología desde mediados del siglo XX. Su principal utilidad es en el área de la Oncología cutánea. A pesar de ello, su práctica ha caído en desuso por diferentes razones. Objetivos: comunicar la experiencia adquirida durante las últimas tres décadas en la aplicación de radioterapia superficial en el Servicio de Dermatología del Hospital General de México. Describir algunas características clínicas y epidemiológicas de los pacientes tratados. Material y método: estudio retrospectivo, observacional, analítico y descriptivo. Se analizaron todos los registros de pacientes tratados con radioterapia superficial en los últimos 30 años. Resultados: en el periodo analizado se trataron 1,645 pacientes. La distribución por género fue mayor para las mujeres en relación 1.8:1. La edad media fue de 55.5 años. Los diagnósticos más frecuentes fueron: carcinoma basocelular (57%), queloides (27%) y carcinoma epidermoide (7%). La topografía más afectada fue la nariz. El equipo más utilizado fue Dermopan II® y la dosis total acumulada más indicada fue de 4,500 rads. Conclusión: la experiencia en la aplicación de radioterapia superficial mostró que es una buena herramienta para el tratamiento de diferentes casos, con predominio de lesiones de estirpe tumoral maligna. No obstante, las condiciones para continuar con su prescripción no fueron favorables. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
