Abstract
In a group of 155 cases with squamous cell carcinoma of the supraglottic larynx (T3-4N0M0), with 3-year local control after radiotherapy, 21 late complications were noted. Using two different methods, an alpha/beta value of 3.8 Gy was calculated. A strong correlation between the risk of late effect in the larynx and size of dose per fraction was found; there was no influence of overall treatment time.Entities:
