Abstract:
Purpose:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the box-shape field technique of radiotherapy for postoperative gastric carcinoma.Methods:Thirty-two patients of gastric carcinoma after subtotal or total gastrectomy with an extensive (D2) lymph-node dissection were irradiated with a total dose of 46～50Gy Gy of external box-shape field technical in 23-25 fractions by linac with 6-MV photons. All patients received concomitant chemotherapy which two cycles of paclitaxel (135mg/m~2 ) and cisplatin (70mg/m~2) in d1-3 and d29-31.Results:The overall survival,the relapse free survival of two years of all patients was 87.50% and 16.67%, respectively. 32 patients with treatment failure had recurrent disease, 4 (6.3%)in the liver,2(6.3%) in the peritoneum, 2(12.5%) in the anastomosis ,respectively. the plan of box-shape fields were evaluated with dose-volume histogram of three-dimensional therapy plan system, The 90% isodose line included the whole clinical target volume,and the dose of organat at rist was under the tolerance dose, except the dose of left kidney.Conclusions:The box-shape field technique of radiotherapy for postoperative gastric carcinoma were a technique which the dose distribution of clinical target volume was satisfaction ,and well tolerated with no severe side effects.[
