Comparison of Recurrence With High Retropharyngeal Nodal-Sparing Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy in HPV-Related and HPV-Unrelated Oropharyngeal Cancer
Abstract
Purpose/Objective(s) Patients with HPV-related oropharyngeal cancers (HPV+OPC) are known to have a superior locoregional control when compared to HPV-unrelated oropharyngeal cancers (HPV-OPC). The introduction of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) has allowed dose painting and sparing of bilateral uninvolved high retropharyngeal nodes (RP). We reviewed outcomes and patterns of recurrence in patients with oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) …
