Abstract: Gastroesophageal junction carcinoma (GJC) is a frequent type of upper gastrointestinal tract cancer with rising incidence. Local recurrence may be frequent during the course of disease. Management of patients must be performed on an individual basis by use of multidisciplinary strategy. Surgery serves as the main modality of management for GJC, nevertheless, radiation therapy (RT) may also be used for treatment. RT may play an integral role as the supplementary or definitive therapeutic option, and recurrent disease may also benefit from irradiation. Treatment of recurrent MCC may be more challenging, however, RT has been used for recurrent GJC management to achieve optimal therapeutic outcomes. In this original research article, we sought to evaluate treatment volume determination for recurrent GJC.
