摘要

Although oesophagectomy has been regarded as the standard treatment for oesophageal cancer, over 50% of patients are inoperable at presentation and 60-70% of cases have locally advanced tumour at diagnosis. Of the patients who undergo successful complete resection the majority succumb to local recurrence or metastatic disease, therefore, pre-operative chemotherapy (neo-adjuvant therapy) and chemo/radiotherapy (CRT) have been promoted for oesophageal cancer patients destined to be treated by surgical resection. General and local pathological tumour response, as well as the patients' tolerance to chemotherapy, are subject to variations. These influence both the post-chemotherapy operability rate and outcome. The idea of the endoscopic use of photodynamic therapy (PDT) in patients with local recurrence for residual endoluminal oesophageal cancer following neo-adjuvant chemotherapy or CRT, who cannot or will not have surgical resection is basically sound and is oncologically attractive. It is based on the premise that chemotherapy will affect the micro-metastatic lesions and that PDT will dispose of the tumour recurrence, or its residue, locally.
