摘要：
Management of Head and Neck Cancers poses a challenge inspite of several advances because of poor success in terms of response rate, survival and reduced morbidity of the patients. In the present study 30 untreated histologically proven cases of head and neck cancers were subjected to weekly radiotherapy with adjuvant chemotherapy (cisplatin 30 mg/m2 intravenously). This study group was compared with a group of 30 patients who were given only radiotherapy. Results have shown that combination of chemotherapy with radiotherapy gives a significantly better results in tumour as well as nodal response with minimal toxicities.
