Clinical study of ear keloids with surgical excision and intraoperative low-energy X-ray irradiation therapy
Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of surgical excision combined with low-energy X-ray irra-diation in the treatment of ear keloids.Methods:Clinical data of 32 cases of ear keloid lesions that received surgical treatment alone or surgery combined with radiotherapy from March 2019 to November 2022 in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery of the Tianjin First Central Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Among them,10 cases received radiotherapy and 22 cases did not receive radiotherapy.The radiotherapy group received irradiation with a large divided dose of 50 kV low-energy X-rays.The mode of fractionation radiotherapy was as follows:the first was 10 Gy of intraoperative radiation therapy and the second was 8 Gy on the 3rd postop-erative day for a total of 18 Gy.The local efficacy and skin radiation reaction were observed at a follow-up of 8-52 months.Results:The median follow-up was 26 months,and as of the date of the last follow-up,9 cases were cured and 1 case was ineffective in the radiotherapy group,with an effective rate of 90.0％,while 9 cases were cured and 13 cases were ineffective in the no-radiotherapy group,with an effective rate of 40.9％.The recurrence of ear keloids was not related to the side,site,or etiology of the patient's onset(P＞0.05).Recurrence was relat-ed to whether or not the patients received radiotherapy(x2=4.885,P＜0.05),and the recurrence rate in the ra-diotherapy group(10.0％)was significantly lower than that in the non-radiotherapy group(59.1％).Conclusion:Surgical excision combined with low-energy X-ray irradiation therapy is an effective method of treating keloids in the ear,especially with intraoperative radiation therapy can achieve more satisfactory results.
