食管癌放射性心脏损伤研究进展北大核心CSCD

放射治疗是食管癌主要治疗方式之一。随着放疗技术的发展,食管癌患者的预后生存逐步提高,放疗导致心脏损伤(RIHD)日益受到人们重视。放疗相关心脏并发症主要包括心包疾病、心肌病、冠状动脉粥样硬化、瓣膜性心脏病和心律不齐等。现代放疗技术有望减轻心脏损伤,降低RIHD的发生率。本文对食管癌RIHD的发生情况及影响因素等相关研究进行综述。

Research progress on radiation-induced heart disease in esophageal cancer

Radiotherapy is one of the main treatment for esophageal cancer. With the development of radiotherapy techniques, prognostic outcomes of esophageal cancer have been gradually improved and radiation-induced heart disease (RIHD) has captivated increasing attention. Radiation-induced heart complications mainly encompass pericardial disease, cardiomyopathy, coronary artery atherosclerosis, valvular heart disease, and arrhythmias, etc. The use of modern radiotherapy techniques is expected to mitigate heart injury and reduce the risk of RIHD. Research progress on the incidence and risk factors of RIHD in esophageal cancer were described as follows.
