[Radiotherapy of early glottic carcinoma. Experience at the "La Fe" Hospital].
The paper deals with the experience gained by the AA (Hospital "La Fe", Valencia) through 49 glottic cancers treated with x-ray therapy. The results are very gratifying since the percentage of survivals and cures at 10 years accounts for 96 and 92 per cent, respectively. Five failures (10%) underwent salvage surgery (T. laryngectomy), 3 with good outcome. With regard to the prognostic factors it is important to recall the great number of recurrences among the cordectomy patients (preceding the x-ray therapy) with seeded borders (4 among 10) than in the rest of the group (1 among 39).
