kinda miserable situation for a guy with a bunch of in transit cutaneous mets more or less encompassing the forearm, which are bleeding, etc. Has to wear a whole arm bandage and is beginning to lose function. It's a variant squam and he's a txp patient with no io options who can't tolerate chemo. Got post-op rt to a portion of this area 3 years ago. Wondering what the craziest fields folks have done for situations like these. Whole forearm ap/pa? Arcs/imrt to just the superficial areas/skin in order to try to cut dose down centrally? Nothing? All the side effects we'd consent people for if we (re)treated the whole forearm are gonna happen sooner than later if I do nothing.
can private msg pics if that would inform advice. pretty extreme and don't want to just post on the web.
