Two-year Outcomes of Ultra-low-dose Radiotherapy in the Treatment of Ocular Adnexal B-cell Lymphomas
Ultra-low-dose RT emerges as an effective and well-tolerated treatment approach for OAL. Our findings support the use of 4 Gy, showcasing high complete response rates (95%) and durable disease control without significant local relapses over an average follow up of 27 months. Our results align with earlier investigations, validating the curative potential of ultra-low-dose RT and reinforcing the concept of achieving favorable outcomes with minimal intervention. This approach may potentially alleviate the burden of long-term ocular side effects associated with higher radiation doses, enhancing the overall quality of life for OAL patients.
