Summary

The study involves head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) of the oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx or hypopharynx with positive nodes on only one side of the neck and no distant metastasis treated by primary (chemo)radiotherapy.

The elective node irradiation on the contralateral side is not always mandatory and the dose may be too high. In this study, we evaluate two strategies: the impact of sentinel lymph node mapping to tailor the volumes to irradiate and the dose reduction.

Conditions

  • Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck

Interventions

RADIATION

Dose de-escalation and / or Volume de-escalation

The dose de-escalation and/or volume de-escalation strategy will be individually adapted in function of the draining pattern of sentinel lymph nodes on the contralateral side of the neck.
