Does sterilization after chemo-radiotherapy of locally advanced oesophagus cancers predict a better local control?

  • 1. CHU Bretonneau, Tours (France)

Description

The authors report a retrospective study which aimed at determining whether 'sterilization of the operating piece' for 102 patients treated between 1999 and 2010 after concomitant chemo-radiotherapy for an oesophagus cancer is correlated by a better local control rate, acceptable morbidity and mortality rates. They also aimed at analyzing the impact of a tumour or ganglionary down-staging on the local-regional control and survival without disease. Short communication
