- description
- Surgery: Endoscopic Nasopharyngectomy: Radical resection of primary lesion using nasal endoscopy. Retropharyngeal Lymphadenectomy: Radical retropharyngeal LNs resection using nasal endoscopy. Radiotherapy: Low Dose Raiotherapy: Low dose radiotherapy target area: CTV1: tumor bed area; For cases where the margin of the primary lesion is negative but less than 3mm, the margin area should be included; It should also include all cervical lymph nodes located above the cricoid cartilage detected by CT/MRI, regardless of size; CTV2: Low risk infiltration area. Intensity modulated radiation therapy prescription dose: CTV1: 36.00Gy/15Fr/2.40Gy; CTV2: 30.00Gy/15Fr/2.00Gy.
