Abstract

Loco-regional recurrence after radical surgery in esophageal cancer is common. However, there is no universally accepted guideline for managing such loco-regional recurrences. Even after multiple local recurrences in the mediastinum, a patient can consolidate safely by re-radiotherapy in the mediastinal region with minimal late morbidity by judicious use of radiotherapy, if there is an acceptable time gap between two radiotherapy periods.
