Abstract:
Objective To discuss the surgical treatment of differentiated thyroid carcinoma ( DTC) viola-ting larynx and trachea .Methods 29 patients with DTC violating larynx and trachea received primary tumor re-section.Among them, 6 patients were with larynx violation , 3 patients with larynx and trachea violation , 16 pa-tients with trachea violation , and 4 patients with anterior strap muscles and skin violation .In addition, 5 patients were type I , 4 patients type II , 9 patients type III , and 11 patients type IV .All patients accepted the total thy-roidectomy.For patients with larynx and trachea violations , 9 received the slashing tracheal surgery ( type I and II) , 15 patients received the window resection and sternocleidomastoid muscle periosteal flap reconstruction , sleeve resection and anastomosis reconstruction , and window resection and gastrostomy .3 patients received total laryngectomy , 2 patients received partial laryngectomy and 4 patients with skin invasion received the reconstruc-tion with pectoralis major muscle flap .Results For these patients , 25 patients were with papillary adenocarcino-ma, and 4 patients with follicular carcinoma .All patients were followed up for 1 to 8 years.3 cases suffered from recurrence, 2 cases with tracheal recurrence received reoperation .3 cases with lung metastasis received the I 131 therapy, among whom 2 cases achieved the local control of lung tumor and the other one survived with tumor .1 patient died of the neck lymph nodes recurrence .25 patients survived over 3 years.13 patients survived over 5 years.Conclusions For patients with DTC with larynx and trachea violation , we should try our best to eliminate the tumor tissues.For the organs invaded by tumors , if possibly, elimination is also needed .This will eliminate or release the suffocation resulted from bleeding or obstruction .In addition , the function of larynx and trachea can be reconstructed and the life quality of these patients can be improved through the flap reconstruction and trachea anastomosis.Standard endocrine therapy and nuclear medicine therapy contribute to the prognosis improvement .
