Abstract:
Objective: To explore related influence factors of the long-term curative effect of 3D conformal radiotherapy for patients with esophagus cancer. Methods: 472 patients with esophageal cancer were carried out simulative location by using CT, and they were implemented radical operative 3D conformal radiotherapy. And their basic documents and image documents were analyzed by using single factor analysis, and then these screened factors were token into Cox model to carry out multiple-factor analysis so as to seek the influence factor of long-term curative effect. Results: The 1 year, 3-year and 5-year survival rate of all of patients were 71.0%, 33.1% and 26.2%, respectively. The results of single factor analysis showed that series of factors, included parts of stratification, length of lesion, the longest diameter of the lesion, largest anteroposterior diameter of lesion, the largest transverse diameter of lesion, wall thickness of lesions, GTV-E, GTV-LN, GTV-T, whether out invasion, whether lymph node metastasis, lymph node metastasis model and the number of lymph nodes under X-ray, were significantly relative with long-term prognosis of patients. And then, the multiple-factor analysis of Cox model showed that the longest diameter of the lesion and GTV-T were the independent factor that can influence the long-term prognosis (OR=1.647, OR=1.379, P<0.05). Conclusion:GTV-T and the longest diameter of lesion on the CT image of patients with esophagus cancer can influence the long-term curative effect of 3D conformal radiotherapy for esophagus cancer. Therefore, they should be applied as the important evaluation index in formulating therapeutic schedule.
