Abstract:
From 1975 to 1976,in Linxian county of Henan province,52 patients with early stage easophageal carcinoma were treated by radiotherapy alone. After 10-year follow-up, the 5-and 10-year surving rates were 73.1%(38/52) and 50.0%(56/52), respectively. Local recurrence was considered as the major cause of death and distance metastasis as the minor. We believe that it is very important to do the "three early "(find early, diagnose early and treat early ) and D T5000～5500cGy/5～5.5wks may be the best dose for radiotherapy alone for early easophageal carcinoma.
