Abstract:
Objective To analysis of the efficacy and toxicity of multiple primary cancer of esophagus in three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy and concomitant chemotherapy.Methods Fifteen cases of multiple primary carcinoma of esophagus who refused the operation were collected.The Elekta linac 6 MV/10 MV X ray was used to conformal irradiation in three-four coplanar wild,2 Gy/time,1 time/day,5 times/week.The dose to the target area,CTV 40-50 Gy/4-5 weeks,GTV 60 Gy/6 weeks.TP scheme (paclitaxel+cisplatin) was used in the first day and 29th day,three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy initiated in the second day after chemotherapy.Results 1,3 year local control and overall survival were 86.7 % (13/15),33.4 % (5/15) and 73.3 % (11/15),26.6 % (4/15).Class 1-2 and class 3-4 acute radiation esophagitis and leukopenia occurred rates were 86.7 % (13/15),13.3 % (2/15) and 80 % (12/15),20 % (3/15).Conclusion Radiation therapy is the better treatment method for multiple primary carcinoma of esophagus when proximal lesions located in upper thoracic and cervical high.Toxic and side-effects can be tolerated of three dimensional conformal radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of multiple esophageal cancer.
