Management of Locally Recurrent Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
The previous review by the International Head and Neck Scientific Group (IHNSG) on recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) summarized the available data that had emerged over the past decade prior to 2010 to identify the scope of the problem [1]. With the adoption of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) +/- stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) for the primary management of NPC in the contemporary era, a renewed review of strategies is needed for the management of recurrent NPC as most failures are now likely to be related to radioresistance.
