Although there may be many possible mechanisms, we speculate that it could be related to his initial treatment with cytotoxic gene therapy along with radiation therapy and androgen deprivation. A significant proportion of patients with bucco-alveolar cancer are long-term survivors, warranting attention to survivorship issues. Decline in neurocognitive function after cranial irradiation for brain tumors correlates with a hippocampal maximum dose (Dmax) of more than 16 Gy, minimum dose (Dmin) of more than 9 Gy, and dose to 40% of the hippocampal volume (D40%) exceeding 7.3 Gy in 2-Gy equivalent dose (EQD2), respectively. We analyzed the utility of sparing the hippocampus in postoperative radiation therapy (PORT) for patients with bucco-alveolar cancer, given the proximity of target volumes to the hippocampus, by virtue of inclusion of the infratemporal fossa. We instituted hippocampal sparing for patients with bucco-alveolar cancer receiving PORT in March 2018. Ten prior and 10 subsequent consecutive patients with pathologically staged I-IVA cancers of the buccal mucosa, alveolus, and retromolar trigone formed the control group (no hippocampal sparing) and the study group (hippocampal sparing), reith hippocampal sparing. The feasibility and benefit of hippocampal sparing supports our view that the hippocampus should be incorporated as an organ at risk and attention should be given to neurocognitive function in patients with bucco-alveolar cancer who are receiving PORT. Meaningful dosimetric benefit, corroborated with radiobiological indices, was observed with hippocampal sparing. The feasibility and benefit of hippocampal sparing supports our view that the hippocampus should be incorporated as an organ at risk and attention should be given to neurocognitive function in patients with bucco-alveolar cancer who are receiving PORT.
