 We retrospectively investigated the clinical outcomes of 49 patients over the age of 75 who were treated for head and neck cancer. These were three treatment groups, namely Group 1(surgical treatment with curative margins, definitive radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy), Group 2(surgical treatment without curative margins and palliative radiotherapy), and Group 3(best supportive care only).

 The 2-year survival rates were 83.1% in Group 1, 64.8% in Group 2, and 0% in Group 3, respectively. The survival rate in Group 1 was significantly higher than that in Group 2(p<0.05, log-rank test). Although definitive treatment may prolong survival in elderly patients, it is necessary to take into account their general condition.
