摘要：
Purpose of review This article provides an overview of randomized studies of altered fractionated radiotherapy (RT) in Head and Neck squamous cell carcinoma. Recent findings Both hyperfractionated RT and accelerated RT may improve tumor control probability as compared to conventional RT, along with increased but manageable toxicity and a modest improvement in survival. Summary Altered RT is a tool that can improve the results obtained with conventional RT in Head and squamous cell carcinoma.
