ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the influence of 125I seed implantation brachytherapy on QOL of patients with salivary gland malignant tumor which couldn't be treated by conventional surgery and its influence factors. Methods 23 patients with malignant salivary gland cancer which couldn't be treated by conventional surgery were selected from Peking University School of Stomatology from 2013 to 2017. The patients were treated by 125I seed implantation brachytherapy. EORTC QLQ-C30 ( V3. 0 ) as well as QLQ-H&N35 QOL scale ( Chinese version) were used for the assessment of post-treatment QOL. Results The survival rate of one year and three years after treatment in 23 patients was 100% and 67%, respectively. The score of the quality of life before and after treatment was 201. 48 and 199. 48, respectively. The difference was not significant after the test ( P>0. 05 ) . The level of total QOL and function score were relatively high. Among the influence factors, location of tumor significantly influenced QOL( F=9. 127,P<0. 05). Other factors still needed research based on larger sample. Conclusions 125I seed implantaion brachytherapy can better protect the head and neck function and maintain the quality of life of patients with salivary gland malignant tumor.
