Salvage endoscopic nasopharyngectomy and intensity‐modulated radiotherapy versus conventional radiotherapy in treating locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Although endoscopic nasopharyngectomy and intensity‐modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) have been reported to be useful in treating isolated local recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), their efficacy needs to be revaluated with comparison to 2D conventional radiotherapy (RT).
