A recent review in this journal in which the National Comprehensive Cancer Network's recommendations (based in part on results from the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group 9501 and European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer 22931 trials) were criticized warrants comment. To address many of the points and misinterpretations raised in that review, additional data are provided that convincingly support the use of concomitant chemotherapy and radiotherapy in patients who have good performance status and high-risk pathologic features after surgery for mucosal head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
