Resumen

Lip cancer accounts for 25?30% of all oral cancers, with 23,000 new cases per year in the world. Carcinomas of the lip can be successfully treated with different methods: surgery, external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) and brachytherapy. The choice of the treatment depends on the tumor size, location and expected functional and esthetic results with each option, but also depends on treatment type accessibility. There are no randomized studies comparing these different treatment strategies. In this article, we investigated the complications and outcomes of patients treated with interstitial pulsed dose rate brachytherapy in our institution.
