Abstract

Data on radio- and thermoradiotherapy of 83 patients with extra-abdominal desmoid tumors are discussed. In a group of 57 patients followed up for 10 years or less, the relapse-free survival rates, in thermoradiotherapy-treated cases, were significantly higher (74,4 and 28,6%) than in those receiving radiotherapy (9,3 and 57,1%). Monitoring tumor temperature during local hyperthermia is a factor of relapse-free survival of vital importance.
