Abstract

This is a double-blind study in which 14 randomly selected patients treated for lung cancer by irradiation, were receiving indomethacin, while 14 patients treated also by irradiation served as controls. The purpose of the study was to investigate a possible protective effect of the drug in irradiation esophagitis. The esophagus was included in the irradiation field in all patients. Histologic findings of esophagitis were not different in the two groups. However, endoscopic esophagitis and symptomatology were milder in the patients who received indomethacin.
