[Application of the displacement of the ventricular bands-epiglottis mucosal flap in the surgical management of glottis carcinoma].
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the plastic method of glottis carcinoma in surgery.


METHODS
Retrospective analyzed 29 patients with T2, T3 glottis carcinoma who admitted in our department From 1996 to 2004. All of them were treated with the displacement of ventricular bands-epiglottis mucosal flap in the surgical management of glottis carcinoma. The tumour was primarily from vocal cords, and not exceeded 2 cm.


RESULTS
All cases were successfully renovated laryngeal cavity with the displacement of ventricular bands-epiglottis mucosal flap and followed up for 5 years after operation. Three years survival rate was 86.2%, 5 years survival rate was 78.9%, and tube drawing rate was 100%.


CONCLUSIONS
With this method, surgery would be simplified and the patients would keep the voiced function and swallowing function.
