Resumo: | Oral mucositis is a common, dose-limiting, and potentially serious complication of cancer therapy. Severe mucositis can lead to modifications of treatment planning and even suspension of therapy, with a negative impact on local tumor control and patient survival, increasing the risk of local and systemic infections. The lesions generally develop in non-keratinized mucosa, which is most vulnerable to this complication. Symptoms can range from a burning sensation to severe pain that impairs nutrient and fluid intake. Low-energy laser has been proposed for treatment of mucositis, with good clinical and functional results, accelerating the healing process and decreasing the pain. The aim of this article, illustrated by two clinical cases at the Pernambuco Cancer Hospital in Recife, Brazil, was to report on the efficacy of low-energy laser in the management of radiation-induced oral mucositis. |

A mucosite grave pode tornar necessária a alteração ou até mesmo a interrupção do tratamento com sérias conseqüências na resposta tumoral e sobrevida do paciente, aumentando o risco de infecções local e sistêmica. As lesões aparecem mais comumente na mucosa não-queratinizada. Os sinais e os sintomas variam desde um leve desconforto até lesões ulcerativas graves, comprometendo a nutrição e a ingestão hídrica do paciente. O laser de baixa intensidade tem sido proposto para o tratamento da mucosite oral, com resultados satisfatórios dos pontos de vista clínico e funcional, acelerando o processo de cicatrização das feridas e diminuindo o quadro doloroso. Este artigo, ilustrado por dois casos clínicos realizados no Hospital do Câncer de Pernambuco, tem como objetivo relatar a eficiência do laser de baixa potência no tratamento da mucosite oral induzida pela radioterapia.INCA2007-03-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionRelato de Casoapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/182510.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2007v53n1.1825Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 53 No. 1 (2007): Jan./Feb./Mar.; 29-33Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 53 Núm. 1 (2007): ene./feb./mar.; 29-33Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 53 n. 1 (2007): jan./fev./mar.; 29-332176-9745reponame:Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online)instname:Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)instacron:INCAporhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/1825/1106Kelner, NatalieCastro, Jurema Freire Lisboa deinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-29T20:26:44Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/1825Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2021-11-29T20:26:44Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false |
