Partial laryngectomy with either cricohyoidoepiglottopexy (CHEP) are mainly used to treat glottic cancers becuse they ensure a satisfactory preservation of physiological functions and satisfactory local carcinologic control. Our study aimed to analyze the functional and carcinologic results of this surgical technique. We conducted a retrospective study of patients undergoing partial laryngectomy with either cricohyoidoepiglottopexy in our Hospital between 2011 and 2014. We analyzed the epidemiological data, the surgical peculiarities, the functional outcomes and the carcinologic control of the disease. A total of 16 patients were included in this study. All our patients had T1 or T2 glottis squamous cell carcinoma. Functional outcomes were generally simple, especially in cases where the preservation of the 2 cricoarytenoid units was possible (75% of cases). However post-operative complications were reported in 31.25%. Carcinologic control was satisfactory, only one patient experienced local recurrence. Partial laryngectomy with either cricohyoidoepiglottopexy (CHEP) is a safe surgery preserving physiological functions and ensuring satisfactory quality of life. It also allows for good carcinologic control (it is subject of course to compliance with surgical indications).

Open Partial Horizontal Laryngectomy as a Conservative Salvage Treatment for Laser-Recurrent Laryngeal Cancer: A Multi-Institutional Series.

Early-stage laryngeal cancer (T1-T2) is commonly treated with organ-preserving techniques such as transoral laser microsurgery (TOLMS) or radiation therapy (RT), both providing comparable oncological outcomes but differing in functional results. Local recurrence occurs in approximately 10% of cases, making salvage surgery a crucial therapeutic option. This multi-institutional study investigates the efficacy of open partial horizontal laryngectomy (OPHL) as a salvage treatment, following recurrent laryngeal squamous-cell carcinoma (LSCC) after failed TOLMS.

Supracricoid partial laryngectomy is a surgical treatment for advanced laryngeal cancer which is implemented to preserve organ function, but it may cause obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) due to anatomical changes after surgery that may be neglected by clinicians. Although the gold standard for the diagnosis of OSAS is polysomnography, respiratory polygraphy is an alternative valid method with a high level of diagnostic sensitivity and specificity; since the equipment is portable, it can be used at home, with no need for hospitalization. To describe the polygraphy result of patients submitted to supracricoid partial laryngectomy.

Introduction: Frontal anterior laryngectomy with epiglottic reconstruction (Tucker's reconstructive surgery) is a technique of partial laryngectomy that has been used by several authors since its introduction in the 80s.The aim of this serie is to specify the indications of this operation and to present the functional and oncological outcomes of our study and those found in the literature.
Materials And Methods: We report a retrospective study of 65 cases who underwent Tucker's operation by many surgeons at our educational center over a period of 31 years (1988 - 2020).

Objectives: We aimed to compare the outcomes of patients with T1-T2N0M0 glottic squamous cell carcinoma who underwent either partial laryngectomy (PL) or radiotherapy (RT).
Methods: A retrospective analysis of 562 patients treated with RT (n = 151) or PL (n = 411) was conducted. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate outcomes.
