Abstract

Chordoma is a bone tumor that is resistant to radiotherapy, and few studies have been published on the concomitant use of radiotherapy in combination with hyperthermia in its treatment. We reported a chordoma patient treated with both radiotherapy and hyperthermia. The patient was a 74-year-old man with chordoma who underwent radiotherapy combined with hyperthermia due to his unwillingness to undergo surgery and responded very well clinically and imaging-wise without increasing in complications. Radiotherapy combined with hyperthermia improves the response to treatment (both clinically and in imaging) and does not increase the complications.

脊索瘤放疗联合热疗效果极佳

脊索瘤是一种对放疗耐药的骨肿瘤，关于放疗联合热疗治疗脊索瘤的研究很少。我们报告了一名同时接受放疗和热疗的脊索瘤患者。患者是一名74岁的脊索瘤男性患者，由于不愿意接受手术，他接受了放疗联合热疗，临床和影像学反应非常好，并没有增加并发症。放疗联合热疗可改善治疗反应（临床和影像学反应），且不会增加并发症。
