title: [Clinical aspects of tracheostomy as a stage of anterolateral laryngeal resection].
abstract: We analysed medical histories of 68 patients with T2-3N0M0 laryngeal cancer who had received combined or surgical treatment. All the patients given the organ preservation treatment were divided into two groups one of which included 36 patients after laryngeal resection without tracheostomy, the other consisted of 32 patients who had undergone laryngectomy with tracheostomy (control). The two groups were matched for age and sex of the patients, the degree of advancement and histological structure of the tumour, its growth rate and localization, dose and schedule of radiotherapy, extent of surgical intervention. The data obtained were used to analyse oncological and functional outcomes of the treatment. Oncological result was estimated based on the survival rate expressed in percentage terms.
