Dosimetric Analysis for Otitis Media With Effusion Due to Eustachian Tube Dysfunction After Carbon-ion Radiation Therapy for Head and Neck Cancers

This study aimed to clarify the predictive factors for otitis media with effusion (OME) due to Eustachian tube dysfunction in patients treated with carbon-ion radiation therapy (CIRT) for head and neck cancers. We investigated patients with head and neck cancer whose Eustachian tube was irradiated b...

Zusammenfassung:This study aimed to clarify the predictive factors for otitis media with effusion (OME) due to Eustachian tube dysfunction in patients treated with carbon-ion radiation therapy (CIRT) for head and neck cancers. We investigated patients with head and neck cancer whose Eustachian tube was irradiated by CIRT between October 2013 and December 2018 at our institution. OME severity was assessed by the proportion of mastoid cell opacification of magnetic resonance or computed tomography imaging (grade 0:
