ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Open partial laryngeal surgery (OPLS) represents a wide array of procedures that can be fitted to treat different types of laryngeal cancer (LC). We would like to present our 30-years' institutional experience, to analyze survival outcomes and to critically discuss prognostic factors.METHODS:
We reviewed all cases of OPLS performed at our Institution from 1982 to 2016 for LC. Survival analysis by Kaplan-Meier estimate was performed and prognostic variables by multivariate analysis were identified.RESULTS:
Mean follow-up time was 68.3 months, 30-day mortality 0.2%, subsequent functional total laryngectomy (TL) was 1.01%. Over 80% of cases were stage I to II. We had 25 local, 62 regional and eight distant recurrences. Local control was 94.9%, overall survival (OS) was 83.4% and disease-specific survival (DSS) was 87.7%. The two major risk factors significantly associated with the risk of death were cT and cN stage.CONCLUSIONS:
We have confirmed that OPLS represents an oncologically sound option in the treatment of LC despite the emergence of non-surgical strategies and new transoral mininvasive techniques. Our results highlight that accurate staging, correct selection of the patient and a strong surgical expertise are of paramount importance in this type of surgery.Palabras clave
