Abstract excerpt

A 61-year-old man, with a tuberous sclerosis, experienced severe acute reactions during a concomitant chemoradiotherapy regimen after 22Gy and one cycle of 5-fluorouracil-cisplatinum. He was treated for a cervical squamous cell lymph node of unknown origin. Grade 3 mucitis and epitheliitis were observed only in the irradiated fields and required the end of the radiotherapy. Tuberous sclerosis is characterized by...
