In head and neck cancer patients with late radiation injury, hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) is used for therapeutic or prophylactic reasons against soft-tissue and osteoradionecrosis (ORN). Twenty-nine departments of oncology, ENT, oral and maxillofacial (OMF) surgery were surveyed using the Enalyzer tool (www.enalyzer.com), of whom 21 responded. Data were incomplete in four returns. Within the previous year, 14 departments had referred at least one patient for hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). There appears to be a generally positive attitude in Danish OMF, ENT and oncology departments towards referral of patients with ORN for HBOT. However, there is an increasing desire for better evidence for its role in head and neck cancer in the prevention and treatment of soft-tissue injury and osteonecrosis following radiotherapy.
在患有晚期放射性损伤的头颈癌患者中,高压氧(HBO)被用于治疗或预防软组织和放射性骨坏死(ORN)。使用Enalyzer工具(www.enalyzer.com)对29个肿瘤学、耳鼻喉科、口腔颌面外科(OMF)科室进行了调查,其中21个科室做出了回应。四份回复中的数据不完整。在前一年,14个科室至少转诊了一名患者接受高压氧治疗(HBOT)。丹麦的口腔颌面外科、耳鼻喉科和肿瘤学科室对将ORN患者转诊接受HBOT似乎普遍持积极态度。然而,越来越多的人希望能有更好的证据证明其在头颈癌放疗后预防和治疗软组织损伤及骨坏死方面的作用。
