A re-irradiation dose of 55–60 Gy improves the survival rate of patients with local recurrent esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after radiotherapy
Abstract Introduction Local recurrence (LR) is clinical challenge in the treatment of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The current study aimed to determine the optimal re-irradiation dose for local recurrent esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (LRESCC) following radical (chemo) radiotherapy...
