Abstract
High dose radiation therapy following radical P/D led to excellent loco-regional control and survival results in MPM patients. A median OS of 33 months and a 3-year OS rate of 49% are among the best observed in recent studies, supporting the idea that this approach represents a concrete therapeutic option for malignant pleural mesothelioma.
