| Abstract | OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to introduce a novel customized intraoral mold treatment for maxillary gingival carcinoma (UGC). STUDY DESIGN: Two patients with UGC were treated as salvage therapy using this technique. The mold was designed to keep normal soft tissues adjacent to the tumor away from the radioactive source as much as possible, and it was shielded by lead. The radiation dose on the buccal mucosa and tongue was measured at the inner and outer surfaces of the intraoral mold before starting high-dose-rate brachytherapy by the remote afterloading system, and was reduced to almost one tenth. RESULTS: The patient had no recurrence and no severe adverse effects on the normal soft tissue adjacent to the tumor until the end of the follow-up period. CONCLUSION: High-dose-rate brachytherapy using the novel customized intraoral mold might be a treatment option of not only salvage therapy, but definitive therapy of UGC. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
