Abstract:
:We report herein the cases of two patients who underwent complete resection of a superior sulcus tumor (SST) plus adjuvant brachytherapy, with the area to be irradiated determined by a computer program system designed to minimize unnecessary irradiation to the normal components and to optimize the effect on the targeted area. Although the efficacy of brachytherapy on the inhibition of local relapse needs to be observed over a long period, the selective and alternative use of delivering adjuvant brachytherapy by this method appears to enhance the quality of life of patients with a SST.
