Characteristics of the local recurrence pattern after curative resection and values in target region delineation in postoperative radiotherapy for lower thoracic esophageal squamous cell cancer.

abstract：BACKGROUND:It has been reported that there are more circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the pulmonary vein (PV) than in the peripheral blood; however, it is unclear whether the CTC count changes in the PV after resection of a lung lobe. METHODS:Thirty-three lung cancer patients were recruited for the study, including 17...
