title: [Notes on the development of treatment protocols in epithelial head and neck tumors].
abstract: Observation of data relating to a lengthy period of clinical activity in the field of head and neck tumours has provided the opportunity for drawing a number of conclusions as regards the prophylaxis of such situations as well as chemo-radiosurgical operating schedules. As regards prophylaxis, particular stress is laid on the worrying number of late diagnoses. In matters of therapy, emphasis is laid on the need for more specific immunological assessments in patients, to guide the physician's decision. The interest of extensive chemotherapeutic experience, which is especially abundant in non-surgical patients, is stressed for the purpose of getting ready for all future developments in the field.
