[Results of radiologic and combined surgical and radiologic treatment of oropharyngeal carcinomas (author's transl)].
A report is given on therapy results of 99 cases of oropharyngeal carcinoma (ICD 146) treated between 1971 and 1979. The healing rate is 80% for the NO stades I and II, 47% for stade III and 37% for stade IV. About one third of all patients of all stades were exclusively irradiated, about two thirds were submitted to a combined surgical and radiologic treatment. The authors study the time after which local recurrences are appearing and describe different irradiation methods. The combined treatment seems to be superior to primary radiotherapy even in NO stades.
