摘要: Background and purpose The treatment strategy for inoperable recurrent mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) is not well established. Here, we present a case of relapsed high grade MEC the salivary glands hard palate that was successfully treated with reirradiation (re-RT) cetuximab, an antibody against epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR).
