[Intensive combined chemo- and radiotherapy in small cell bronchial carcinoma]

117 patients with small cell bronchogenic carcinoma stage III-IV were treated, 82 patients with a combined chemotherapy and radiotherapy and 35 patients with combined chemotherapy only. All schedules investigated were successful. Long term remissions were obtained only in patients with a relatively located tumor, who achieved complete remission in consequence of treatment. Therapy results will be improved in future by perfecting the existing methods of treatment.
