我们在1961年分析食管癌放射治疗疗效时发现,在髓质型中有一类疗效特别差,当时称之为凶型;另外一型则疗效较好,称之为善型。而介于二者之间者则称之为中间型。三年来的观察,这种分法对指导临床治疗和推测预后有一定意义。故对本院开胸探查和放射治疗的580例进行了分析,并对其中156 When we analyzed the efficacy of radiotherapy for esophageal cancer in 1961, we found that one type of medulla had a particularly poor effect. At that time, it was called a fierce type; the other type had a good effect, which was called good type. Those in between are called intermediate types. Over the past three years, this method of classification has a certain significance in guiding clinical treatment and predicting prognosis. Therefore, 580 cases of open chest exploration and radiotherapy in this hospital were analyzed and 156 of them were analyzed.
