| Core Tip |
The palliative therapy method has not been confirmed for metastatic esophageal cancer. This case report represents a patient who was cancer-free for an extended period of time after palliative chemoradiation of 30 Gy in 10 fractions. We think that 30 Gy without oblique beams is a more favorable radiotherapy method for patients. |
