摘要：

Twenty-one patients with bulky mediastinal disease responding to chemotherapy received consolidation with low-dose mediastinal radiation (19.8-25.2 Gy). Their 5-year mediastinal failure rate (10%) was equivalent to that of 10 similar patients who received higher doses of 30-44 Gy (20%). Low-dose radiation may be appropriate for these patients. Prospective studies are required to verify these findings. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.
