Interventions
1. Radiotherapy combined with concomitant chemotherapy: Radiotherapy Program:External radiation with a total dose of 40.0Gy is given in 20 fractions of 2.0Gy,5 fractions a week. neo-chemotherapy program: Vinorelbine 25mg/m2, IV (in the vein) on day 1 and day 8 of each 21 day cycle. Cisplatin 75mg/m2,IV DRIP on day 1 of each 21 day cycle;or Cisplatin 25mg/m2,IV DRIP on day 1 to day 4 of each 21 day cycle. Number of cycles:two 2. surgery:Mckeown Modification Surgery and total two-field lymphadenectomy
