Epstein-Barr virus-positive T/natural killer (NK)-cell lymphoproliferative disorder (EBV+T/NK LPD) encompasses a heterogeneous group of disorders that have a common feature with excessive lymphoid proliferation of mainly T cells and/or NK cells. This disease is rare, predominantly affects children and young adults, and associated with high mortality. Herein, we report a case of EBV+T/NK LPD that occurred in an old woman with good outcome.

Encouraging clinical results have renewed the interest in hyperthermia for the treatment of cancer for the past few years. Several experimental studies allowed better knowing the mechanisms of action of hyperthermia at the cellular and tissular level: direct cytotoxic effect of the temperature increase, potentialization through hyperthermia of the effects of ionizing radiation and of anticancerous chemotherapeutic drugs. There are many techniques for tissue heating: local hyperthermia with external applicators (microwaves, radiofrequencies, ultrasound) or with implanted interstitial heaters; regional hyperthermia produced by ultrahigh frequency, capacitive or resistive heating systems: or generalized hyperthermia.

The tumors were staged post-operatively and were almost equally distributed between the two groups. The esophageal specimens were macroscopically studied on the fresh specimens with vital staining, then microscopically.
