Purpose/Objective: Objective: To evaluate efficacy and toxicity of HDR BT in non operable endobronchial carcinoma from a large retrospective multicentric study. Materials/Methods: Patients and methods: Criteria for selection were: non small cell carcinoma accessible to fiberoptic bronchoscopy, no extrabronchial extension on CT, definitive contraindication to surgery and external radiation therapy (ERT). For statistical analysis, survival curves were calculated with the Kaplan-Meier method and compared with the Logrank test. The Cox model was used to evaluate in uni and multivariate analysis the impact on survival and complications of the following parameters: location of tumor: lobar or segmental vs main stem bronchus, previous treatment with surgery and/or ERT vs no, in situ vs invasive histology, total dose: 30 Gy vs less, dose per fraction: 5 Gy vs more, number of catheter(s): 1 vs 2. Results: Between April 1991 and May 2004, a total of 199 patients from 8 radiotherapy departments met criteria: 196 males and 3 females, mean age 64.9 years (range 40 -84). Main characteristics of tumors were as follow: squamous-cell carcinoma: 193 (97%), stage Tis: 53, T1: 133, T2: 9, Tx 4; lobar
