Abstract
The clinical course of 9 patients with squamous carcinoma of the uvula were studied and the clinical literature involving such lesions were reviewed. These tumors have a very poor prognosis when metastases occur, despite seemingly adequate initial therapy to the primary tumor. More aggressive treatment (which may include irradiation of even subclinically involved neck nodes) should be considered.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
