Outcome measures
Primary outcome
The primary objective will be the number, size and features of postoperative wound complications during the first 4 months after surgery
Secondary outcome
- the acute toxicity during radiotherapy with HBOT according to the to the Common Terminology Crtiteria for Adverse Events 4 (CTC-AE4).
- the tumor response will also be evaluated with a MRI 2 weeks before the surgery according to the RECIST criteria.
- the percentage of necrosis in the pathology specimen.
Study objective
Our hypothesis is that HBOT decreases the incidence of wound complications of surgery following preoperative radiotherapy. Added to this, increasing the oxygen level of irradiated tissue might have a positive effect on radiotherapy response.
Study design
The patients will be followed up weekly during the first month, and monthly thereafter up to 4 months after surgery.
Intervention
Hyperbaric Oxygen, 90 minutes per , 5 days per week, during the radiotherapy course (25 fractions)
