Granulomatous slack skin disease: a new combined proton and photon therapy approach with a reported case response

Abstract: Purpose: Here, we report the feasibility and long-term efficacy of a granulomatous slack skin disease (GSSD) treatment with combined high-energy photon and proton beams.Patient and methods: A GSSD patient with abdominal disease volume 25 × 15 × 2-4 cm deep was recommended for treatment at this institution. In addition to photons and electrons, high-energy protons delivered with advanced planning techniques and patient positioning were used. The patient was irradiated to a total dose of 40 Gy by using 20 Gy mat… Show more
