An esophageal fistula can be caused by an esophageal tumor as well as the surgery, radiotherapy (RT), or chemoradiotherapy used to treat the tumor. The most dangerous complications are massive hemoptysis and asphyxia. This report describes a 58-year-old man with a >1-month history of dysphagia and hemoptysis.

- * A 55-year-old man with coughing and shortness of breath was diagnosed with BALT lymphoma via bronchoscopy and biopsy, leading to a recommendation for radiotherapy.
- * Following treatment, the patient exhibited no significant side effects, and subsequent scans indicated no recurrence, highlighting the disease's good prognosis and the effectiveness of non-invasive diagnostic methods like computed tomography virtual bronchoscopy (CTVB).
Objective: Retrospectively analyzed the esophageal carcinoma (EC) patients with esophageal perforation (EP) after radiotherapy to discuss the treatment and prognosis.
Methods: Data of patients with EC who had EP after radiotherapy in Hebei Cancer Hospital were collected from 2001 to 2020 and retrospectively analyzed. All analyses were performed using SPSS Statistics for Windows, version 18.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the salvage radiotherapy outcome in patients with local recurrent esophageal cancer after radical radiochemotherapy (RCT).
Methods: A total of 114 patients with local recurrent esophageal squamous cell carcinoma after initial radical RCT were retrospectively analyzed. Fifty-five (55) patients belonged to the salvage radiotherapy group (SR group) and 59 patients to the non-salvage radiotherapy group (NSR group).
