title: [Treatment results of radiotherapy of T1-4N0M0 laryngeal cancer from 1963 to 1982].
abstract: Report on 323 patients with squamous-cell-carcinomas of the larynx stage TIS T1-4N0M0 treated between 1963 and 1982. Treatment results of operation with consecutively applied radiotherapy are compared with those of radiotherapy alone under consideration of the different stages. Five-year-survival of patients with glottic carcinomas in the stages TIS T1a/b was 91% in each treatment group, in stage T2 68 and 59% respectively, in stage T3 68 and 37% respectively. Therefore and because of the better vocal function radiotherapy as single treatment is recommended in the early stages TIS T1-2, whereas in stage T3 the combined treatment should be preferred. A detailed analysis of the treatment results of supra- and infra-glottic carcinomas was not possible because of the low number of patients.
