Trismus is a common complication of radiotherapy for head and neck cancer but its impact on survival is unknown.This prospective study evaluates the incidence of trismus in patients with head and neck cancer receiving radiotherapy and the impact of trismus The aim of this study was to analyze retrospectively effects of exercise therapy on trismus related to head and neck cancer or as a consequence of its treatment, and to compare these effects with trismus not related to head and neck cancer. Medical records of patients referred to the department of
Operable oral tongue cancers are managed best with surgery followed by adjuvant therapy as and when indicated. The only factor that affects the prognosis, and is under the control of a surgeon, is the tumour margin. Often in cases with trismus, which is prevalent in tobacco and areca nut users,
OBJECTIVE
Trismus may be caused by several factors including those related with cancer and non-cancer disorders. The purpose of our study was to explore the effectiveness of physical therapy in cancer related vs non-cancer trismus.
METHODS
Thirty trismus patients who had undergone radiotherapy due
BACKGROUND
The aim was to retrospectively investigate trismus (reduced mandible mobility) development in specified head and neck (H&N) cancer diagnosis according to different radiotherapy dosage regimens.
METHODS
Sixty-nine out of 246 patients with different H&N cancer diagnoses and available
Patients can develop trismus from their head and neck cancer or as a result of treatment. Trismus affects the jaw muscles and makes mouth opening difficult. To potentially combat trismus, patients could undertake proactive jaw stretching exercises prior to, during and after radiotherapy, although
The Dynasplint Trismus System (DTS) can be used to treat trismus secondary to head and neck cancer. We conducted a prospective study with the following aims: (1) to determine the effects of DTS exercises on changes in mouth opening, pain, mandibular function, quality of life (QoL), and
Oral cancers in association with trismus are commonly seen in clinical practice. Such a situation deserves special attention as it may complicate the tumour-ablative surgery and interfere with postoperative cancer surveillance. It follows that the simultaneous tackling of oral cancer and trismus
OBJECTIVE
The objectives were to measure the degree of trismus induced after radiation therapy for nasopharyngeal cancer and assess its progress over time.
METHODS
A prospective, single-armed measurement study with long-term follow-up.
METHODS
Seventeen patients with nasopharyngeal cancer treated
To compare the effects of low intensity ultrasound (LIUS), traditional exercise therapy (TET), low level laser therapy (LLLT) and TET on temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain and trismus following recovery from head and neck cancer (HNC).Sixty participants Trismus is a common complication following treatment for oral cancers. However, its incidence in site-specific cancers is not adequately studied. The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence and risk factors associated with trismus in treated patients with oral OBJECTIVE
In head and neck cancer patients undergoing curative radiotherapy, we investigated the benefits and harms of an early exercise regime on trismus.
METHODS
Patients with head and neck cancer undergoing radiotherapy were centrally randomised to exercises 5-6 times for 45 minutes during and
The aim of this study was to develop a normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) model for trismus in head and neck cancer (HNC) patients treated with radiotherapy (RT).Prospective measurements of maximum inter-incisal opening (MIO) were performed at BACKGROUND
Our aim was to assess the correlation between the radiation therapy (RT) dose to the mastication apparatus and trismus of oropharyngeal cancer patients.
METHODS
Eighty-one patients treated with RT were analyzed. The masseter, pterygoid, and temporalis muscles and the coronoid and condyl
BACKGROUND
Patients with oral cancer can develop restricted mouth opening (trismus) because of the oncologic treatment.
METHODS
Maximum mouth opening (MMO) was measured in 143 patients shortly before treatment and 0, 6, and 12 months posttreatment, and the results were analyzed using a linear
