目的确认Ⅰ期胸腺瘤根治术后是否常规行放射治疗。材料与方法前瞻性随机分组研究,1981年8月至1996年1月,29例根治术后Ⅰ期胸腺瘤患者入组研究。单一手术组13例,术后放疗组16例,年龄≤65岁。肿瘤在包膜内生长,大体与镜下包膜未受侵。术后放疗组病例,在术后4周内接受放射治疗。放射源8MV-X线。多为2个前斜野加楔形板照射,放疗区域为原瘤床区。淋巴细胞为主型照射DT50Gy/5周,上皮或混合细胞型DT60Gy/6周。生存率统计为卡—迈曲线。结果两组均无复发或转移,术后放疗组无严重放射副反应。单一手术组5年和10年生存率均为92%,术后放疗组均为88%,差异无统计学意义。3例死亡,其中1例死于重症肌无力(Myastheniagravis,MG),2例死于其它疾病。放射治疗未缓解MG。结论Ⅰ期胸腺瘤无需术后放疗。放射治疗与控制MG无关
Objective To determine whether radiotherapy is routinely performed after primary thymoma surgery. Materials and Methods A prospective randomized study, from August 1981 to January 1996, enrolled 29 patients with stage I thymomas after radical surgery. There were 13 cases in the single surgery group and 16 cases in the postoperative radiotherapy group, aged ≤ 65 years. Tumors grew within the capsule and the gross and microscopic capsules were not invaded. Patients in the postoperative radiotherapy group received radiation therapy within 4 weeks after surgery. Radioactive source 8MV-X line. Most of the front oblique field plus wedge plate irradiation, radiotherapy area for the original tumor bed area. Lymphocytes predominantly irradiated DT50Gy for 5 weeks, and epithelial or mixed cell types were DT60Gy/6 weeks. Survival statistics are card-Machine curves. Results There was no recurrence or metastasis in both groups. There was no serious radiation side effect in the postoperative radiotherapy group. The 5-year and 10-year survival rates were 92% in the single surgery group and 88% in the postoperative radiotherapy group. The difference was not statistically significant. Three patients died, one of whom died of myastheniagravis (MG) and the other 2 died of other diseases. Radiation therapy did not alleviate MG. Conclusions Stage I thymoma does not require postoperative radiotherapy. Radiotherapy has nothing to do with controlling MG
