Objective: The objective of this study is to provide a retrospective review of the 40-year experience of three oncology referral centers in the field of reconstructive laryngeal surgery.

Materials And Methods: A multi-institutional retrospective analysis included adult patients who underwent reconstructive laryngeal surgery for cT2-T4a laryngeal cancer (LC) between 1 June 1987 and 1 July 2019. Patients were stratified according to the European Laryngological Society classification for open partial horizontal laryngectomy (OPHL).

Article Synopsis
  • Transoral surgery is effective for early-stage pharyngeal and laryngeal cancer, offering good local control with less invasiveness compared to external incisions, but criteria for postoperative treatment remain unclear.
  • In a study of 70 patients at Gifu University Hospital, high rates of positive surgical margins were found (38.6% horizontal, 27.1% vertical), yet overall survival rates were strong, with 77.1% surviving five years post-surgery.
  • Horizontal margin positivity correlated with worse outcomes, while vascular invasion wasn't significantly linked to prognosis, indicating a need for more research to establish clear postoperative treatment guidelines.

Dysphagia After Partial Horizontal Supracricoid Laryngectomy: A Close Look.

Cureus

June 2024

Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Instituto Português de Oncologia de Coimbra Francisco Gentil, Coimbra, PRT.

Partial horizontal supracricoid laryngectomy (SCPL) with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy (CHEP) is a conservative surgical alternative for laryngeal cancer in the glottic or supraglottic region. Dysphagia and aspiration are frequently reported consequences of this surgery. We describe the case of a 72-year-old male patient diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx (T2N0M0), who underwent SCPL with CHEP reconstruction.

Objective: Supraglottic squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) represents a major surgical challenge in organ-preserving treatment. Type I open partial horizontal laryngectomy (OPHL I) is considered the most popular. To date, minimally-invasive approaches such as laser microsurgery and transoral robotic surgery (TORS) have gained increasing relevance.
