Surgical treatment strategies for laryngeal chondrosarcomas: A single institution investigation
The Laryngoscope Jul 29, 2021
Zeitels SM, et al. - Since laryngeal chondrosarcomas are rare malignancies with a spectrum of presentations due to varying size, local extension, and biological behavior, as well as these neoplasms have differing impacts on respiration, phonation, and deglutition, researchers conducted this retrospective case series to evaluate endoscopic and transcervical treatment strategies. Twenty-five patients were identified with laryngeal chondrosarcomas and their tumor pathology and treatment were analyzed. Unresected intercurrent disease with laryngeal chondrosarcomas was not fatal in this study. As a result, illness was usually left in the posterior cricoid region to retain at least one cricoarytenoid joint's mobility. This ideology used an ultra-function-sparing conservation approach to maintain and/or restore excellent voice, airway patency and swallowing.
