Abstract:
0.05). However, the 5-year local control rate appeared significantly different in three groups (?~2=7.239, P0.05). The 1-,3-,and 5-year disease-free survival rate among three groups were significantly different in the three groups (79.1%, 41.9% and 35.6% for CFR group, 85.7%, 57.1% and 38.1% for FHR group, and 95.4%, 62.8% and 58.1% for LAHR group) (?~2=6.60,P0.05). The incidence of loss of hearing, the radiation-induced temporomandibular joint lesion, and the radiation-induced brain injury was 31.3%, 41.9% and 9.3% in CFR group, and 25.0%, 35.7% and 7.1% in FRH group, and 22.7%, 35.7% and 7.0% in LAHR group, respectively. Conclusion A better 5-year local control rate and disease-free survival rate were achieved in patients in LAHR and FHR groups than those in CFR group. There are no differences in the incidence of late complications and overall survival rate among three groups.
