Abstract
Despite the limitations of this retrospective study, our data support the role of PORT in decreasing local relapses. Because of the large number of out-of-PTV relapses in the contralateral mediastinum, inclusion of elective contralateral lymph node stations in the PTV could be considered in left-sided tumors. However, prospective randomized trials are needed to verify this.
