[Value of radiotherapy in non-small cell bronchial cancer].
Lung cancer is today still diagnosed mostly in the extensive disease stage. If resectable, these tumors should undergo surgery as the treatment holding the best curative chance. Depending on pathohistological classification, postoperative radiation therapy should be considered. Inoperable case should receive curative radiation therapy. Poor survival rates generally depend on the tumor dose given. Development of new treatment patterns (preoperative combined radiation-chemotherapy) is under way.
