Radiotherapy and Locoregional Oncology

ACC overview

Locoregional oncology in ACC is best read by intent: adjuvant local control, palliation or focal control of metastatic sites, and combination use alongside systemic therapy.¹²³

Clinical Map

Adjuvant and Palliative Radiotherapy in ACC

These papers cover postoperative bed irradiation, symptom control, and the expected limits of radiotherapy as a sole disease-control strategy.¹²³

Grouped note: Adjuvant and Palliative Radiotherapy in ACC

Ablative and Other Locoregional Strategies in ACC

This cluster covers ablation, embolization, and related focal approaches used for metastases or recurrent lesions.¹²³

Grouped note: Ablative and Other Locoregional Strategies in ACC

Integrating Locoregional and Systemic Therapy in ACC

These studies ask when local therapy meaningfully complements mitotane, chemotherapy, or multimodal treatment plans.¹²³
