[Results treatment of laryngeal cancer in T4N0M0 stage]

Experience of treatment of 127 patients with cancerous laryngeal tumor in T4N0M0 stage was summarized. In 25 patients radiation therapy was done, in 16--chemoradiation treatment, in 42--surgical, in 44--the combined one. Difference between results of application of radiation therapy and chemoradiation treatment was not significant. After conduction of combined treatment with preoperative radiation the 5-year survival index had constituted (53.1 +/- 10.8)%. High efficacy of surgical prophylaxis of the regional metastases occurrence was noted in patients with stenosing laryngeal cancer. When radiation resistant laryngeal cancer is revealed it is necessary to study up the efficacy of surgical prophylaxis of the regional metastases occurrence in such patients.
