N2 - We analyzed the treatment outcomes and safety of concomitant chemoradiotherapy (CCRT), especially with a combination of docetaxel, cisplatin and 5FU (TPF), for local advanced external auditory canal squamous cell carcinomas. In addition, we analyzed the correlation between tumor invasion site and prognosis. The study comprised 21 patients with the following criteria: (1) external auditory canal squamous cell carcinomas which were subject to radical treatment at Hokkaido University Hospital between 2007 and 2017, and (2) T3–4 classified according to the University of Pittsburg system. As a result, tumor invasion into the dura or temporomandibular joint was associated with neck lymph node metastasis, and tumor invasion into the temporomandibular joint was associated with local recurrence. The 2-year overall survival rate (OS) and 2-year local control rate (LC) were 61.1% and 52.1% in all patients, respectively. In patients treated with CCRT, the 2-year OS was 85.7% in CCRT with TPF and 25.0% in CCRT with others, and the 2-year LC was 57.1% in CCRT with TPF and 25.0% in CCRT with others. Grade 3︲4 leucopenia and neutropenia occurred in 55% and 45% of patients treated with CCRT with TPF, respectively. CCRT with TPF shows high efficacy and safety for local advanced external auditory canal squamous cell carcinomas.
