Abstract:
Objective:To summarize clinical experience in surgical treatment of supraglottic carcinoma and reconstructive techniques.
Methods:Medical files of 184 patients (173 men, 11 women) were collected and retrospectively analyzed, who underwent surgeries between January 2008 and December 2012 at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University. Among them, T1, T2, T3 and T4 staging tumors accounted respectively for 14.1% (26/184), 41.9%(77/184), 31.5%(58/184) and 12.5%(23/184). Cervical metastasis was histologically identified in 86 cases (98 for N0, 31 for N1 and 55 for N2). Advanced cases (56 cases at stage Ⅲ and 67 at stage Ⅳ), early cases (22 at stage Ⅰ and 39 at stage Ⅱ) accounted respectively for 66.8% and 33.2%. Supraglottic horizontal laryngectomy or total laryngectomy was performed to allow for tumor excision without compromising margins and the tongue flap or sternohyoidmyofascial flap was subsequently used for repairing the defect after removal of tumor. Survival rates were analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method.
Results:Patients receiving conservation laryngeal surgery accounted for 75.5% (139/184). The 3-year and 5-year survival rates for all cases were 84.2% and 70.7%, respectively. Log-rank test demonstrated that cervical lymph node metastasis, primary tumor staging and clinical TNM staging were significantly associated with prognoses of patients (P=0.003, 0.010, 0.035). Dysphagia was not observed in any case and speech function was maintained in petients with partial laryngectomy.
Conclusion:Adequate pre-operative evaluation, individualized treatment, and comprehensive application of flaps for repair are critical to precise tumor excision and reconstruction of laryngeal functions.
