Abstract:Objective To access the clinical effect of medical radiation protective ointment compared with trolamine cream to prevent acute radiation-induced skin injury in breast cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy after modified radical mastectomy. Methods Between February 2017 and February 2018,a total of 120 stage T1-4N1-3M0 eligible patients received intensity modulated radiation therapy were enrolled and matches into two groups:study group (60 cases) was administered medical radiation protective ointment from the first irradiation fraction,and control group (60 cases) received trolamine cream. When 3 grade reaction was observed,patients in control group start to administer medical radiation protective ointment until a month after radiation. Results The occurrence rate of acute breast dermal radiation reaction was 100%.Most patients in study group only underwent 1 grade radiation reaction (82%),while 2 and 3 grade radiation reaction (47% and 13%) in control group were common (P=0.000).Both pruritic degree and pain degree were higher in control group compared with study group (both P=0.000).In study group,the occurrence of 2 grade acute radiation-induced skin injury was obviously later than in control group with significant difference (P=0.000).Patients observed with 3 grade reaction relieved to certain reaction after administering medical radiation protective ointment. Conclusions Medical radiation protective ointment can effectively both alleviate and delay acute radiation-induced skin injury compared with trolamine cream. It also has therapeutic effect on 3 grade radiation reaction.
