title: [Results of radiation and combination therapy of glomus tumors].
abstract: Over the period of 1965-1985 radiation and combined therapy for glomus tumors of different sites was provided to 80 patients aged 34 to 79. Radiation therapy alone was given to 51 patients, of them 18 patients had recurrences of malignant tumors. Radiation therapy following surgery was given to 29 patients. Gamma-beam therapy was given from fields, size from 5 X 5 to 8 X 10 cm, using in some cases lattice and wedge-shaped filters, at a single dose of 2-3 Gy up to a total dose of 60-70 Gy. Of 33 patients with primary malignant tumors 30 lived over 5 yrs., of 18 patients with postoperative recurrences 15 lived for 5 yrs. Of 29 patients who had been on combined therapy, 2 died in 3-5 yrs. of causes unrelated to the main disease.
