Description

The authors report a study which aimed at revealing the long term effect of radiations on the tumour para-ganglionic tissue, at assessing the efficiency and the role of radiotherapy in taking into care of cervical-cephalic paraganglioma, and at assessing the post-therapeutic quality of life. The study is based on a retrospective analysis of 30 patients treated by irradiation, and the analysis is performed in terms of treatment type, received dose, response to radiotherapy, survival rate, tumour control.
