Abstract
The subject of combined therapy for carcinoma of the head and neck is as perplexing now as it was in its beginning. Low vs high dose pre-operative radiation for carcinoma of the larynx remains a valid question. A total of 92 patients with advanced laryngeal carcinoma were studied at the University of Illinois. The results of treatment for 2 patients receiving planned low dose pre-operative radiation and 30 patients receiving planned high dose pre-operative radiation have been studied, using the actuarial method to calculate survival. Improved survival and decreased complications are evident in the low dose pre-operative group as compared to the high dose pre-operative group.
