摘要
The management of base of tongue cancer has evolved steadily over time. Organ preservation with primary radiation therapy has produced excellent oncologic and functional outcomes. Concomitant chemotherapy has become important in patients with locoregionally advanced disease. Planned neck dissection after organ preservation therapy continues to be an integral step for regional control. This article reports the results of a literature review of base of tongue cancer emphasizing a multidisciplinary approach to obtain optimal results in terms of cure and quality of life.
