[20 years' experience in the use of local hyperthermia in the treatment of inoperable cancer of the esophagus].
The paper discusses the results of treatment of 280 patients with inoperable esophageal cancer which included local hyperthermia, radiotherapy, hyperglycemia and chemotherapy. 122 patients receiving radiotherapy alone served as controls. The complete remission rate obtained with local hyperthermia and radiotherapy was 2.5 times that observed for radiotherapy alone. Hospital lethality was 1.4% in the study group and 2.4% in controls whereas 5-year survival rates were 13.1% and 0, respectively.
