title: [Results of treatment of upper gingiva and palate carcinomas].
abstract: From 1981 to 1986 in the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery, Institute of Stomatology, Medical Academy in Warsaw 85 patients were treated for carcinoma of the upper gingiva and palate. The follow-up of the patients after treatment was from 3 to 7 years. The obtained results of the treatment were analysed depending on the degree of differentiation of neoplasms and their biological aggressiveness and the therapeutic method used. It was found that the results of the treatment of upper gingiva carcinoma were not satisfactory. The best results were obtained using surgical treatment followed by radiotherapy. A positive result of the treatment without symptoms of recurrence was achieved in 21 cases (24.7%).
