Near-total laryngectomy (NTL) offers good oncological and functional outcomes for laryngeal tumors. This voice-preserving surgery yielded excellent results, but is not advised for salvage after radiation failure.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Speech and Voice Science

Background:

  • Near-total laryngectomy (NTL) is a viable alternative to total laryngectomy for select laryngeal and hypopharyngeal tumors.
  • Reproducibility of NTL outcomes across institutions is crucial for its broader adoption.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the functional and oncological outcomes of NTL across multiple institutions.
  • To compare voice quality after NTL with other laryngeal speech rehabilitation methods.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 245 patients undergoing NTL across three institutions.
  • Assessment of oncological control (local recurrence) and functional outcomes (voice preservation and quality).

Main Results:

Related Experiment Videos

  • High local control rate of 98% in previously untreated patients.
  • Functional voice achieved in 80% of patients, with superior quality compared to tracheoesophageal voice prosthesis.
  • NTL demonstrated consistent results across the participating institutions.

Conclusions:

  • Near-total laryngectomy provides reproducible and favorable oncological and functional results for selected laryngeal/hypopharyngeal tumors.
  • NTL is a recommended surgical option, offering better voice outcomes than tracheoesophageal voice prosthesis.
  • NTL is not recommended for salvage surgery following radiation failure due to a significant recurrence rate (up to 20%).
