Treatment modalities and outcomes of Fanconi anemia patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: Series of 9 cases and review of the literature

Adjuvant radiation with concurrent cetuximab seemed feasible with careful monitoring in subjects with adverse traits, although local disease control was occasional.
