Childhood rhabdomyosarcoma. Analysis of coordinated therapy and results
- 1. M.D. Anderson Hospital and Tumor Inst., Houston, TX
Description
The current utilization of an intensive coordinated therapy program (surgery, radiotherapy, and intensive multidrug chemotherapy) has increased the success rate in treatment for rhabdomyosarcoma in children. A 68 percent 3 year survival and 89 percent local control of rhabdomyosarcoma of head and neck substantiate this. These results suggest that surgical procedures regarding rhabdomyosarcoma primary in other sites require reevaluation and possible modification. (U.S.)
