  • Nekirurško zdravljenje verukoznega karcinoma glave in vratu = Non-surgical treatment of verrucous carcinoma of the head and neck
    Strojan, Primož ; Šoba, Erika ; Auersperg, Marija, 1937-
    Background: Verrucous carcinoma is a low grade, locally invasive squamous cellcarcinoma. The treatment of choice is surgery, which can be mutilating in the head and neck region if radical. Purpose: ... To review the results of concomitant chemoradiotherapy as a new treatment option for this type of cancer. Patients and methods: During the period between 1980 and 2002, four patients had only radiotherapy and nine were treated with radiotherapy and concomitant combined chemotherapy at the Institute of Oncology in Ljubljana. Results: The disease recurred in 3/4 irradiated patients and only in 1/9 patients who were treated with chemoradiotherapy. All patients irradiated witha sufficiently intensive regimen, i. e. with a biologically effective doseof > 60 Gy, who received at least two cycles of chemotherapy during radiotherapy, were cured. Conclusions: The success of a properly designed and conducted non-surgical therapy of verrucous carcinoma is comparable to the results of surgery.
