A 50-year-old man who presented with a fever and epigastralgia was diagnosed to have esophageal carcinoma which was identified as poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma producing alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) with Barrett's esophagus. Computed tomography revealed multiple liver metastases and lymph node metastases surrounding the stomach. We first performed chemotherapy for the systemic lesions and proton beam therapy for the local control of lesions without complete remission and we were able to successfully control the frequently recurring lesions by proton beam therapy, cryotherapy and chemotherapy. A complete response has been maintained for 16 months and the overall survival time is 4 years and 2 months. Proton beam therapy for primary esophageal cancer and metastatic lesions was thus found to be an effective therapeutic option for such cases.
一名50岁男性因发热和上腹部疼痛就诊,被诊断为食管癌,病理检查显示为低分化腺癌,伴有Barrett食管,且能产生甲胎蛋白(AFP)。计算机断层扫描显示肝脏多发转移及胃周围淋巴结转移。我们首先对全身病变进行化疗,并对未完全缓解的局部病变进行质子束治疗,通过质子束治疗、冷冻治疗和化疗成功控制了频繁复发的病变。目前已维持完全缓解16个月,总生存时间为4年2个月。因此,质子束治疗原发性食管癌及转移灶是此类病例的有效治疗选择。
