[Prevention of sequelae after transcutaneous radiotherapy for epitheliomas of the oral cavity (author's transl)]. / Prévention des séquelles de la radiothérapie transcutanée des épithéliomas de la cavité buccale.

Close cooperation between the radiotherapist, surgeon, and patient is necessary in order to prevent sequelae following transcutaneous radiotherapy for epitheliomas of the oral cavity. The most effective therapeutic results combined with a minimum of sequelae are obtained by the use of a good irradiation technique, close supervision, careful treatment of any oral or dental affection, prescribing simple medications only, and stopping the use of tobacco and alcohol.
