Summary

Peristomal recurrence after laryngectomy affects 6% of patients. Key risk factors include subglottic tumor involvement, advanced T4 stage, and lymph node metastasis.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Oncology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Laryngectomy is a common treatment for laryngeal cancer.
  • Peristomal recurrence is a significant complication following laryngectomy.
  • Understanding risk factors is crucial for improving patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the incidence of peristomal recurrence in laryngectomized patients.
  • To identify correlations between peristomal recurrence and clinicopathological factors.
  • To analyze the impact of emergency tracheostomy on peristomal recurrence.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective and prospective study of 435 laryngectomized patients.
  • Statistical analysis of 26 patients with peristomal recurrence.
  • Evaluation of primary tumor site, stage, nodal metastases, and tracheostomy timing.

Main Results:

  • Peristomal recurrence observed in approximately 6% of patients.
  • Significant correlation found between peristomal recurrence and subglottic area involvement.
  • Significant correlation found between peristomal recurrence and T4 stage primary tumors.
  • Significant correlation found between peristomal recurrence and nodal metastases.
  • No correlation identified between peristomal recurrence and emergency tracheostomy performed >48 hours prior to surgery.

Conclusions:

  • Subglottic involvement, T4 tumor stage, and nodal metastases are significant risk factors for peristomal recurrence.
  • Emergency tracheostomy timing does not appear to influence peristomal recurrence.
  • These findings can inform surgical planning and patient monitoring to reduce recurrence rates.
