57 patients have been reviewed. 39 had radiotherapy (28 glomus jugulare, 7 glomus tympanicum and 4 glomus caroticum/vagale tumours). Two patients have died of their tumour and one patient had increasing nerve involvement during two months after irradiation. It is concluded that the results bear comparison with those of surgery and that extensive surgery in tumours with extratympanal growth is not warranted.
已对57例患者进行了复查。39例接受了放射治疗(28例颈静脉球瘤、7例鼓室球瘤和4例颈动脉体/迷走神经球瘤)。2例患者死于肿瘤,1例患者在放疗后两个月内神经受累情况加重。结论是,这些结果可与手术结果相媲美,对于有鼓室外生长的肿瘤,无需进行广泛手术。
