简要总结
Retrospective study evaluating the efficacy of a pharmacy-prepared Morphine gel used in clinics for the treatment of pain associated with perineal radiodermatitis. The main aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Morphine Gel (MG) in pain management.
详细描述
Radiotherapy (RT) can induce acute side effects or toxicities, known as radiodermatitis (RD). Technological and technical advances have made it possible to reduce these toxicities (1), although certain organs such as the skin and mucous membranes remain vulnerable, particularly when the tumor is located nearby.
Skin exposed to ionizing radiation (IR) during the treatment of tumors close to the cutaneous surface is no longer able to renew itself due to an alteration in the basal cell mitotic process, leading to suppression of skin cell renewal. IR also induces senescence of epidermal keratinocytes, responsible for exacerbated inflammatory activity and structural dysfunction of the epidermal barrier, through disruption of the keratinization and cornification process. (2).
RD usually heals ad integrum. They are classified into 5 grades according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 5.0 (3), presenting different clinical aspects ranging from grade I to V.
Grade II and III RDs are frequently observed in patients undergoing perineal RT, especially as medical treatment is associated.
In addition to the tumor's proximity to the skin, several anatomical factors specific to the perineal region contribute to the occurrence of these RDs: a wetter area, with skin folds, subject to friction and the presence of the urinary and anal orifices, potential sources of irritation by the elimination of urine and feces.
