In the period 1932 to 1975 469 patients were admitted with a malignoma of the tonsils. 74,9% were stage T3. Nearly 50% showed up with involvement of fixated and suspicious lymphnodes. The relation men to women was 80:20. The highest incidence was found in the age group 61-70 a. The patients were treated using Radium: interstitial implants and external radiation, later Cobalt sources and the Betatron. The over-all 5 year survival rate is 21.6% for carcinomas and 32% for sarcomas. In the case histories there are predominantly late ones because difficulties in swallowing are neglected for a long time. The prognosis for cases stage T3 is rather bad. Considering the literature our material is the greatest out of a single department.
