Patients with inoperable cancer of the esophagus were followed up for 1-3 years after a course of palliative endoscopic destruction of tumor. Residual growth occurred in 88.1% with an average stabilization period of 47 days. Among the unfavorable prognostic factors were partial decomposition of tumor, squamous-cell pattern, size of more than 9 cm, circular extension through the esophagus and stage III stenosis. With the aid of newly-developed methods of outpatient endoscopic destruction, 94.2% could eat throughout their survival period. Mean survival time was 5.6 months or 7.3 months in metastasis-free cases.
对无法手术的食管癌患者在进行姑息性内镜下肿瘤毁损治疗后进行了1至3年的随访。88.1%的患者出现肿瘤残留生长，平均稳定期为47天。不良预后因素包括肿瘤部分分解、鳞状细胞形态、大小超过9厘米、食管环形扩展以及III期狭窄。借助新开发的门诊内镜毁损方法，94.2%的患者在整个生存期都能进食。无转移病例的平均生存时间为5.6个月或7.3个月。
