Abstract:
From 1990 to 1992, 41 patients with ulcerating or fistulized esophageal carcinoma (EC) were treated by the conventional irradiaton after a nasogastric tube was inserted into the esophageal lumen. The total doses were 60～65GY/6～6.5WKS. The results were: 1/1 CR in patients with small ulcer, 10/13 CR and 2/13 PR in patients with medium-sized ulcer, 2/7 CR and 3/7 PR in patients with large ulcer, 3/10 CR and 5/10 PR in patients with esophageal mediastinal fistula and 1/10 CR and 4/10 PR in patients with esophagel tracheal or bronchial fistula. The total remission rate was 75.6%(31/41). The 1-and 2-year survival rates were 42.8%, 26.6% for EC with ulcer and 25%, 10% for EC with fistula, respectively.
