Abstract:
Four of 65 patients (6%) with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) were treated by megavoltage teleradiotherapy for palliation of symptoms arising from mediastinal obstruction or intrathoracic lymphadenopathy. External beam irradiation was found to be effective treatment for these disease complications associated with CLL.
