title: [Extended supracricoid partial laryngectomy with tracheocricohyoidoepiglottopexy and tracheocricohyoidoglottopexy].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the surgical procedure and indication of the Extended supracricoid partial laryngectomy with tracheocricohyoidoepiglottopexy and tracheocricohyoidoglottopexy (ESCPL+-TCHEP/TCHP) as well as the rehabilitation of laryngeal functions.
  
  
  METHODS
  ESCPL+TCHEP/TCHP were conducted in 10 cases with laryngeal carcinoma of T3 and T4 stages with subglottic invasion for 10-20 mm from 2000 to 2005.
  
  
  RESULTS
  All the 10 cases, 9 of them have survived until now and still be followed up. 1 of them succumbed to the recurrence of cervical lymph node metastasis 4 years after the surgery. Normal respiration, deglutition and the function of maintaining subglottic pressure were recovered in all the case. Postoperative phonation was also satisfactory among all of them.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  If handle the surgical indication strictly, to some cases of laryngeal carcinoma with subglottic invasion for 10-20 mm, this surgical technique could replace the total laryngectomy.
