title: [Experience with induction chemoradiotherapy for cT4N2M0 lung cancer].
abstract: The 42-year-old man with cT4N2M0 adenocarcinoma is reported. The primary tumor showed no change in size on chest X-ray film after chemoradiotherapy, but chest computed tomography revealed necrosis of the lesion and was supposed to be down staging to cT3N0M0. Right upper lobectomy and lymph node dissection (R 2) was performed. Pathological examination revealed histological CR, and he is still alive 34 months after the start of induction therapy.
