Results The effect was 81.1 % in radiotherapy group and 90.5 % in chemoradiotherapy group, the difference in effect was no statistically significant (?2=2.719, P =0.09), The 1, 3 and 5-year survived rates were 43.2 %, 16.2 %, 9.5 % respectively in radiotherapy group and 71.6 %, 33.8 %, 21.6 % respectively in chemoradiotherapy group. The survival rates in chemoradiotherapy group were all higher than that in radiotherapy group, the difference in effect was statistically significant(?2=8.684, P
