摘要：

Forty-seven patients with very advanced cancer of the pyriform sinus were treated with surgery and immediate postoperative radiation in a planned sequential manner. Eradication of the cancer above the clavicles was obtained in 81 per cent of the patients, with a treatment mortality of 8 per cent. Most of the patients' tumors were resected with primary closure, which obviated the need for complicated reconstructive procedures. The survival rate of 23 per cent at 2 years and the high rate of distant metastasis reflect the aggressive biologic behavior of this cancer. The need to find an adjuvant treatment that will act upon the systemic spread of this cancer is obvious. © 1979.
