  Introduction: for early stage glottic cancer, different schedules had been applied. The use of hypofractionation seems to be attractive for shorter overall treatment time and decreased cost of treatment. The aim of our trial is to study the local control and survival rates of hypo fractionated radiotherapy schedule of 55Gy/20 fractions with 2.75Gy/fraction. Methods: T1-2 N0 glottic squamous cell carcinoma was treated at Clinical Oncology department, Tanta university hospital between February 2015 and January 2018. All patients were treated with a schedule of 55Gy/20 fractions/4 weeks. Patients for whom surgery was done whether cordotomy or stripping using laser have been removed. Local control, regional control, and overall survival probabilities were determined. Results: This phase II prospective study, forty-one early stage glottic cancer patients who had fulfilled inclusion criteri.. Read More»
