[Cordectomy in the surgical treatment of tumors T1 of the vocal cords. Review of our cases (1974-1990)].
We decided to review the results of cordectomy in our surroundings over the 22 years of existence of our Service. 631 clinic histories of patients undergoing surgery for laryngeal cancer in our Department, between 1974 and 1990, were reexamined, and from those selected 56 pertaining to T1 tumors treated with cordectomy. In this reduced group were studied epidemiology, clinical and pathologic data, complications, survival and death causes as well. The 58 considered were of male sex, middle aged (58-86) excepting 9 patients under 50. Their relation with tobacco eas clear, although less than in our general series (87.93% smokers). Of the 58 patients group 4 of then disappear during the 5 years follow-up term (8.62%). Three died: one from ganglion disease, other from local recurrence and the last one from other condition. In brief, global survival are accounted for 94.34% and the adjusted survival was 96.1%.
