Abstract:Radiotherapy is an important means for curing nasopharyngeal carcinoma at present. However, how to handle the focus residual, relapse and metastasis after the radiotherapy of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is still a hot potato. 125I seed implantation is regarded as a member of the comprehensive therapies. Its feasibility for curing such cancer has already been confirmed in the experimental research of the cytology and zoology, and it has been applied in the focus residual, relapse and metastasis after the radiotherapy. Furthermore, its clinical therapy effect has been acknowledged.
