title: [Role of radiotherapy on tumor and mediastinum as a combined treatment with chemotherapy in patients with limited small cell lung carcinoma].
abstract: A group of 154 limited small cell lung cancer patients was studied. 107 of them were treated with chemo- radiotherapy on tumor and mediastinum, 47 patients were treated with chemotherapy only.
