title: [Hemilaryngectomy of the supracricoid: experience of 58 cases. (Follow-up study for 5 years)].
abstract: In the supracricoid hemilaryngectomy the wing of the thyroid and its internally related structures are resected. This is widely used in T2 glottic tumour. Some writers describe its use in limited ventricularis lesions. We have frequently used this technique in both types of lesions. In this paper 58 cases of patients operated on between 1974 and 1986 are reviewed, giving a follow-up period of more than five years. The results obtained, both oncological and functional, are good enough to make this technique basic in the treatment of laryngeal cancer.
