Abstract

A study was made of recurrent maxillary cancer in 74 of the 178 patients who were treated in our hospital for the past 13 years and 7 months.<br>In the traditional therapy composed of total maxillectomy and radiotherapy, initial treatment is of particular importance and must be carried out thoroughly. In contrast, the current combined therapy consisting of surgery, radiotherapy and regional chemotherapy places stress on the importance of the treatment at the time of recurrence.<br>In the latter case, the lesion tends to recur in the anterior wall as well as the superior wall of the antrum and particular care should be paid to make particular examination of such regions.<br>With immediate and adequate treatment at the time of recurrence, preservation of the structure and function of the diseased region may be successfully controlled.
