Horizontal glottectomy offers excellent outcomes for early glottic cancer, with high survival rates and minimal functional impact. This surgical technique ensures effective local control and rapid patient recovery.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Laryngeal Cancer Research

Background:

  • Glottic carcinoma presents a significant challenge in head and neck oncology.
  • Surgical management options for early-stage glottic cancer require evaluation for efficacy and functional preservation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the functional and oncological outcomes of horizontal glottectomy for T1a and T1b glottic carcinomas.
  • To assess the safety and reliability of horizontal glottectomy in the therapeutic management of limited glottic cancers.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 25 patients who underwent horizontal glottectomy.
  • Assessment of survival rates, local control, functional recovery, and complications.

Main Results:

  • High overall three-year (94%) and five-year (88%) survival rates were observed.
  • 100% decannulation success and no laryngeal stenosis reported; average nasogastric tube removal at 11.8 days.
  • Distant metastasis, primarily lung carcinoma, identified as the main cause of long-term failure.

Conclusions:

  • Horizontal glottectomy demonstrates high local control and favorable functional results for limited glottic carcinomas.
  • The procedure is a reliable and safe option, contributing positively to the therapeutic management of early-stage glottic cancer.
  • Emphasis on monitoring for distant metastasis as a critical factor in long-term patient outcomes.
