Abstract
An optimal treatment of head and neck carcinoma is to be targeted at obtaining a good local control of the disease. Intraoperative radiotherapy is one of the means of increasing the irradiation dose in the tumoral volume. It appears particularly suitable for initial treatment of locally advanced head and neck lesions and treatment of recurrence of non irradiated tumors.
