Objective To study the setup errors in three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) for thoracic esophageal carcinoma using electronic portal imaging device(EPID) and calculate the margins from CTV to PTV. Methods Forty-one patients with thoracic esophageal carcinoma who received 3DCRT were continuously enrolled into this study. The anterior and lateral electronic portal images (EPI) were aquired by EPID once a week. The setup errors were obtained through comparing the difference between EPI and digitally reconstructed radiographs(DRR). Then the setup margins from CTV to PTV were calculat-ed. By using self paired design,22 patients received definitive radiotherapy with different margins. Group A: the margins were 10 mm in all the three axes;Group B: the margins were aquired in this study. The differ-ence were compared by Paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results The margins from CTV to PTV in x,y and z axes were 8.72 mm, 10.50 mm and 5.62 mm, respectively. Between the group A and group B, the difference of the maximum dose of the spinal cord was significant(4638.7 cGy±1449.6 cGy vs. 4310.2 cGy±1528.7 cGy; t=5.48, P=0.000), and the difference of NTCP for the spinal cord was also significant (4.82%±5.99% vs. 3.64%±4.70%;Z=-2.70,P=0.007). Conclusions For patients with tho-racic esophageal carcinoma who receive 3DCRT in author's department,the margins from CTV to PTV in x, y and z axes were 8.72 mm, 10.50 mm and 5.62 mm, respectively. The spinal cord could be better protected by using these setup margins than using 10 mm in each axis.

Objective To review the prevention and treatment strategies for complications after carotid artery stenting in a single medical center. Methods From December 2004 to December 2009,clinical data of 118 cases of carotid artery stenting with the use of cerebral protective device were analyzed retrospectively. Results The surgical success rate was 100% with no perioperative 30- day mortality or severe complications such as disabling stroke. The overall perioperative complication rate was 32. 20% (38/118), including carotid artery spasm in 10.17% (10/118), bradycardia in 11.02% (13/118), hypotension in 2.54% (3/118), transient ischemic attack in 5.93% (7/118) and false aneurysm of femoral artery in 2. 54% (3/118) cases. The average follow-up time was (28 ± 15) months. The mortality was 2. 38% (2/84) and the overall complication rate was 10. 71% (9/84) , including ischemic stroke in 3. 57% (3/84) , in-stent restenosis in 1. 19% ( 1/84) , stent deformation in 4. 66% (4/84) and stent fracture in 1. 19% (1/84) cases. Conclusion Death or ischemic stroke and other severe complications after carotid artery stenting under cerebral protective device were low. A careful selection of patients and strict indication for surgery is the key to reduce the complication rate.
