It was initially advocated in extended glottic carcinoma and in hypopharyngeal carcinoma. More recently, the utility of Pearson’s NTL for supraglottic, pharyngeal, and base of tongue cancer has been reported. Its application is also described for ...
متن کاملLaryngostroboscopic evaluation after supracricoid partial laryngectomy.
BACKGROUND Supracricoid partial laryngectomy (SCPL) results in laryngeal preservation in more than 95% of patients with T2 glottic carcinoma. Postsurgical glottic function is characterized by an absence of vocal cords, and phonation quality is a key post-SCPL quality-of-life factor. OBJECTIVE This investigation was designed to enhance post-SCPL vocal function, study anatomic function of the p...
