Postcricoid carcinoma: is organ preservation justified in T3?
Results of organ preservation with radical RT or CCRT do not show promising outcomes in the locally advanced T3 carcinoma of postcricoid. Radical surgery with appropriate reconstruction and postoperative radiotherapy is probably better in terms of local control as well as overall survival. Proper preoperative counseling and postoperative rehabilitation of speech and stoma can improve the quality of life of T3 postcricoid carcinoma patients.
Use of an e-learning package in immunology in addition to regular teaching improved learning outcomes for intermediate-range students.
