The treatment of squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal vestibule with interstitial iridium implantation
Abstract
From April 1981 to April 1984, 22 patients, all male, with a squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal vestibule were treated in the Rotterdam Radio-Therapeutic Institute with an interstitial iridium implantation alone or with a combination of external radiation and an interstitial iridium implantation. Median follow-up time was 26 months. One patient with a very large undifferentiated tumour developed local recurrences and regional metastases as well. No other patient had a local recurrence, regional or distant metastasis. Complications were only minor.
