Abstract:
The article presents the results of conservative surgery in 102 patients with laryngeal cancer T2 and T3. Frontolateral laryngeal resections in different variants (endoprosthesis, extended, an inferior variant) were conducted in 85 (83.3%) patients, horizontal laryngeal resection - in 17 (16.7%) patients (a combined variant -in 2 of them). The treatment resulted in primary healing of a postoperative wound in 92 (90.2%) patients. Complications consisted in development of pharyngeal fistula, suppuration of the postoperative wound, first of all in combined and extended resections, after a total dose of radiotherapy. Minor operations on the larynx enabled decannulation of 98 (96.1%) patients. Four (3.9%) patients continue to carry cannula because of marked scarry alterations.
