[Percutaneous radiotherapy of thyroid malignancies. Analysis of 54 cases].
A report is given on 54 cases of thyroid malignancy treated at the University Department of Radiotherapy and Radiobiology of Vienna from January 1970 till September 1977. These cases are analysed according to local control of disease and survival time. The 5-year disease-free survival rate for all histological types was found to be 48%. Local recurrence occurred in 13% of cases. Combined external irradiation and radioiodine therapy is critically discussed.
