ABSTRACT
Over the last 2 decades, the paradigm of laryngeal cancer management has pivoted toward preserving laryngeal function without sacrificing oncologic outcomes. Transoral laser microsurgery has diminished the role of open laryngeal surgery. For early-stage laryngeal cancer, the common primary modalities are endoscopic laryngeal surgery and narrow field radiation. Total laryngectomy followed by either radiation or chemoradiation is option for advanced laryngeal cancer. In experienced hands and following meticulous patient selection, supracricoid laryngectomy may serve as a viable alternative to total laryngectomy to preserve laryngeal function. Total laryngectomy is still the recommended treatment in those with airway compromise and/or laryngeal dysfunction.
