  • Title: [References for after-care of tumor patients].
    Author: Bier H, Schultze M, Ganzer U.
    Journal: HNO; 1993 Jan; 41(1):47-54. PubMed ID: 8383647.
    Abstract:
    Recent publications have questioned the benefit of extensive routine follow-up measures in all patients that have undergone treatment for head and neck cancer. Both the poor detection rate of asymptomatic early tumor lesions and the severe limitations that are encountered with regard to further treatment options require an individual follow-up protocol mainly depending on site, size, and treatment of the respective tumor. The objective is to increase the efficacy of the follow-up in head and neck cancer patients carried out in both clinics and private practice.
