Predstavitev treh primerov ekstramedularnega plazmacitoma grla, ki so bili zdravljeni na Onkološkem inštitutu v Ljubljani v obdobju 1969-1999. Rezultati. Vsi trije bolniki so bili zdravljeni samo z obsevanjem. Pri vseh treh je bila dosežena permanentna lokalna in regionalna kontrola bolezni v trajanju 7.8, 4.7 in 3.5 let ter ohranjena funkcija grla. Dva bolnika sta umrla, oba zaradi vzrokov, ki niso bili povezani s plazmacitomom. Pri nobenem izmed bolnikov bolezen ni napredovala v multipli mielom. Zaključki. Ekstramedularni plazmacitom grla je redka bolezen, ozdravljiva pri večini bolnikov, zdravljenih z obsevanjem. Srednje visoke obsevalne doze in polja omejenega obsega zagotavljajo odličen kozmetski in funkcionalni rezultatTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaDruštvo radiologije in onkologije
