[Long-term results of the treatment of cancer of the mouth mucosa and the tongue].
The paper is concerned with analysis of the 5-year recurrence-free survival in 279 patients with cancer of the oral and tongue mucosa. The site, spread, anatomical shape and a method of the treatment of a primary tumor focus and regional metastases were taken into account. The advantage of the proposed method of moving sectorial irradiation was shown because it permitted the delivery of high focal doses (80-60 Gy) to tumors and metastases. The obtained long-term results of gamma-beam therapy were equal to those of the combined radiation method but radiation reactions were less noticeable and radiation injuries were minimum.
