title: [Extended supra glottic laryngectomies].
abstract: In the period 1976-1998, 408 patients with supraglottic laryngeal cancer were primarily treated by surgery using the method of supraglottic laryngectomy. Classical supraglottic laryngectomy was performed in 355 patients, while 53 underwent extended supraglottic laryngectomy. The objective of the study was to analyze the success of the extended supraglottic laryngectomy in relation to classical supraglottic laryngectomy in indicated cases. T1 tumor was found in 171 (42%) patients, T2 in 212 (52%), while T3 was found in 25 (6%) cases. Local recurrence developed in 3 out of 53 patients operated by the extended supraglottic laryngectomy technique, and in 17 out of 355 operated by classical supraglottic laryngectomy (chi2=0.075, DF=1, p=0.784; Yates=0.00, p=1.00). Five-year survival of patients operated by the extended supraglottic laryngectomy was reported in 40 out of 53 patients, while survival of patients operated by classical supraglottic laryngectomy was noted in 270 out of 355 cases (chi2=0.004, DF=1, p=0.926; Yates=0.00, p=1.00). There was no significant difference of local recurrence and five-year survival between patients treated by classical and extended supraglottic laryngectomy.
