• Definitive radiotherapy (RT) to the primary tumour can only be considered in carefully selected patients for local control when excision is not possible either due to severe patient comorbidities (e.g. very old age, end-stage cardiovascular disease, etc.), when the morbidity associated with the excision is considered unacceptable or when surgery is refused by the patient.
