OBJECTIVE Supracricoid laryngectomy with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy has been known to be able to cope with tumor excisions with minimal margins. Extended resection may result in a limited margin and may impair the prognosis. We conducted a clinicopathologic analysis of local recurrence in supracricoid laryngectomy with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy patients. METHODS Between 1997 and 2013, 100 patien...

L aryngeal fractures occur in 1 in 30,000 trauma patients admitted to dedicated trauma centers. Once a laryngeal fracture is suspected or identified, the primary goal is to secure the airway, followed by reconstruction to conserve laryngopharyngeal function. Cricohyoidoepiglottopexy is a surgical approach typically used in the management of glottic carcinoma. In this study, a case of laryngeal ...

OBJECTIVE A positive Delphian node is known to predict a poor prognosis in laryngeal cancer. To elucidate the clinical significance of positive Delphian node metastasis in supracricoid laryngectomized patients, we conducted a thorough clinical review. METHODS We reviewed clinical data from 65 patients who underwent supracricoid laryngectomy with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy; in these patients, th...

BACKGROUND The aim of the retrospective study was to compare the indications, the postoperative outcomes, and the survival of the supracricoid laryngectomy with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy and the anterior frontal laryngectomy. METHOD Nineteen patients who underwent cricohyoidoepiglottopexy (group I) and 23 patients who underwent reconstructive anterior frontal laryngectomy (group II) from Janua...
