    Abstract:
    The first post-therapeutic year in 33 patients with esophageal cancer treated by radiotherapy alone is analyzed. Effectiveness of treatment was measured by clinical symptoms, radiological findings, and autopsy results. Out of a group of 33 patients, 36.4% showed no subjective or objective symptoms 1 year after commencement of therapy. Based on our own experience and the literature, the concept of therapy in esophageal cancer is discussed.
