[Combined modalities in the treatment of limited small cell lung cancer].
A combined modalities approach--radiotherapy plus chemotherapy to the treatment of limited small cell lung cancer are presented. There are three strategies for the treatment: sequential, concurrent and alternative therapy. Concurrent and alternative appear to be preferred. Thoracic radiotherapy can be administered continuously or "split course". There is a trend favouring the combination of Cisplatin + Vepeside as the chemotherapy regimen of choice in combined modality therapy for limited small cell lung cancer.
