Incidence and Dosimetric Predictors of Radiation-Induced Gastric Bleeding After Chemoradiation for Esophageal and Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer

To determine the incidence and predictors of gastric bleeding after chemoradiation for esophageal or gastroesophageal junction cancer.We reviewed patients receiving chemoradiation to at least 41.4 Gy for localized esophageal cancer whose fields included the stomach and who did not undergo surgical resection. The primary endpoint was grade ≥3 gastric hemorrhage (GB3+). Comprehensive stomach dose-volume parameters were collected, and stomach...
