Dose volume histograms of the high dose rate brachytherapy for 30 patients with tongue cancer and 6 patients with cancer of the mouth floor were calculated by means of PLATO. All patients were treated with HDR brachytherapy of 6Gy per day. 20 patients with tongue cancer and 4 patients with mouthe floor cancer were treated with 60Gy/10 fractions of HDR brachytherapy alone. Other 12 patients were treated with 20-41Gy of external radiation and 42-60Gy of HDR brachytherapy. V100% was defined as the volume of 6Gy per fraction.<br>For tongue cancer, V100% of patients treated with single plane, single plane plus one tube, double plane and volume implant were 14cm3, 29cm3, 18cm3 and 64cm3, respectively. The corresponding figures of V200% were 3cm3, 8cm3, 3cm3 and 10cm3. V100% and V200% of mouth floor cancer were 10cm3 and 3cm3.<br>For patients treated with HDR brachytherapy alone, local recurrence occurred in 2 patients with small treatment volume (V100%: 9.7cm3, 11.0cm3) and soft tissue ulcer occurred in 2 patients with large treatment volume (V100%: 25.6cm3, 31.8cm3). Treatment volumes of mouth floor cancer were small compared with tongue cancer patients. There were no soft tissue ulcer in 6 patients.<br>For 10 tongue cancer patients treated with combination of external radiation and HDR brachytherapy, 6 patients were treated with single plane implant and 4 patients with volume implant. For single plane implant, V100% and V200% were 13-19cm3 and 2.3-4.3cm3, respectively. There were no local recurrence and no soft tissue ulcer. For volume implant, V100% and V200% were extremely high compared with other treatment. Ulcer occurred in the patient without local recurrence. It is difficult to treat these bulky tumor without late complication.<br>Treatment volume is an important factor for both local control and late complication.
