The local control rates in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue, treated between 1958 and 1972, were determined by retrospective analysis of the records of 339 patients at the Norwegian Radium Hospital and of 164 patients at the University of Wisconsin Hospitals. The correlation between the clinical stage and the local control rate was good in Norway, less striking in Wisconsin. As the tumor grew in size it generally became increasingly difficult to control. Irradiation and surgery appeared relatively satisfactory in patients with tumors in early stages, but were often inadequate in the advanced tumors. The differences observed between Norway and Wisconsin were statistically significant only for the tumors of the base of the tongue and T2N0, T3N0 and TxN1 tumors of the anterior two-thirds of the tongue.
通过回顾性分析挪威镭医院339例患者及威斯康星大学医院164例患者的记录,确定了1958年至1972年间接受治疗的舌鳞状细胞癌患者的局部控制率。在挪威,临床分期与局部控制率之间的相关性良好,在威斯康星州则不太显著。随着肿瘤体积的增大,通常越来越难以控制。对于早期肿瘤患者,放疗和手术似乎相对令人满意,但对于晚期肿瘤往往不足。挪威和威斯康星州之间观察到的差异仅在舌根肿瘤以及舌前三分之二的T2N0、T3N0和TxN1肿瘤中具有统计学意义。
