title: [Reaction of the laryngeal mucosa and skin of the neck to the combined use of irradiation, hyperthermia and chemotherapy in laryngeal cancer].
abstract: Reactions of the laryngeal and neck skin mucosa were studied in 93 laryngeal cancer patients on combined therapy including hyperthermia. Patients in the control groups received no local hyperthermia. Reactions on the laryngeal mucosa (hyperemia, insular and confluent epitheliitis) were observed in all the patients; in patients receiving chemotherapy they were more noticeable. In patients receiving local hyperthermia these reactions appeared somewhat later and were less noticeable and not repeated. Skin reactions correlated only with a radiation dose and did not depend on chemotherapy and hyperthermia. Local electromagnetic hyperthermia in laryngeal cancer patients neither influenced the appearance of radiation reactions nor enhanced them.
