title: [Combination treatment of recurring laryngeal cancer].
abstract: The results of treatment of 192 patients with recurring and incurable laryngeal cancer after a previous course of radiotherapy were studied. Of the total number of patients 95 were treated by surgery only and 97 received a preoperative course of intensive radiotherapy. The study has shown that the irradiation of recurring and incurable by radiotherapy tumors of the larynx at a dose of 6 Gy on the eve and on the day of operation (a summary focal dose of 12 Gy, DMF--37 units) permits an increase of the index of uncomplicated healing of the laryngeal wound from 68.4 up to 86%; simultaneously the 3-year recurrence and metastasis-free survival rates increase from 47.8 up to 81.4%.
