Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the surgical methods and outcomes of laryngeal stenosis after laryngeal cancer surgery. Method:Nineteen patients with laryngeal stenosis caused by partial laryngectomy were retrospectively analyzed.Two cases were treated by endoscopic laser resection. Seventeen were treated by open surgery. Among them 15 used the sternohyoid myocutaneous flap and 1 thyroid alar cartilage and 1 hyoid bone as grafts. Result:Sixteen patients were decannulated and the overall decannulation rate was 84%. A silicone T tube was remained in place from 3 to 18 months, mean 10 months. Follow-up was obtained from 11 months to 8 years. Conclusion:Vertical partial laryngectomy easily lead to laryngeal stenosis. The sternohyoid myocutaneous flap is the major approach for laryngeal stenosis. Endoscopic laser resection is effective for mild stenosis.
