title: [Results of clinical studies of the efficacy of intraoperative radiotherapy in combined treatment of stomach cancer].
abstract: The results of clinical application of an original method of operable gastric cancer treatment including pre- and intraoperative irradiation (IORT) and radical intervention are presented. According to a randomized study, combination treatment did not involve intra- and postoperative complication rates higher than those of surgery alone. Moreover, a significant decrease in postoperative pancreatitis was registered. IORT is a highly effective method of adjuvant treatment of operable gastric cancer. Due to its application in conjunction with preoperative irradiation and radical surgery, the end results of locally-advanced gastric cancer improved.
