  • Title: [Locoregional recurrences of HNSCC: place of re-irradiations].
    Author: Bourhis J, Temam S, Wibault P, Lusinchi A, de Crevoisier B, Janot R, Bobin S.
    Journal: Bull Cancer; 2004 Nov; 91(11):871-3. PubMed ID: 15582891.
    Abstract:
    Unresectable forms of HNSCC relapses occurring in a previously irradiated area are relatively common and may be difficult to manage from a therapeutic point of view. Full dose re-irradiation with concomitant chemotherapy constitutes an alternative to palliative chemotherapy. Indeed, the feasibility of this approach has been shown, and may be associated with a curative potential in a relatively low proportion of these relapses.
