AbstractCarcinoma in Situ (CIS) of the glottis is an uncommon and poorly understood condition with few, large, long- term studies. Twelve cases are presented which were treated with radiotherapy. At three-year follow-up all the patients are disease free and in 83 per cent the mucosa has returned to normal. The alternative methods of treatment are discussed.

A retrospective analysis was undertaken of 65 patients with long-term follow-up for laryngeal squamous dysplasia. Based on the degree of dysplasia demonstrated on initial biopsy, 0 of 6 patients showing hyperkeratosis without dysplasia, 3 of 26 patients (12%) showing mild dysplasia, 5 of 15 patients (33%) showing moderate dysplasia, 4 of 9 patients (44%) showing severe dysplasia, and 1 of 9 patients (11%) showing carcinoma in situ eventually progressed to invasive carcinoma. An analysis was made of the impact of various treatment modalities in 33 patients demonstrating moderate dysplasia, severe dysplasia, or carcinoma in situ. Invasive carcinoma developed in 10 of 21 patients (48%) treated endoscopically and 0 of 12 patients treated by more aggressive therapy, including external beam radiotherapy, partial laryngectomy, or total laryngectomy. Of the patients in the endoscopic therapy group who developed invasive carcinoma, all were salvaged successfully. The overall rate of laryngeal preservation was 15 of 21 patients (71%) in the endoscopic treatment group and 11 of 12 patients (92%) in the aggressive treatment group. This difference is not statistically significant. We conclude that there is a moderately high rate of progression to invasive carcinoma in patients undergoing repeated endoscopic therapy for intraepithelial neoplasms of the larynx. However, with close, long-term follow-up, patients undergoing endoscopic therapy have an overall outcome similar to that in patients treated with partial laryngectomy or radiotherapy prior to developing invasive disease.

Excision biopsy, radiotherapy, and laryngofissure cordectomy have all been used, but the best treatment regimen for glottic carcinoma in situ remains controversial. A 20-year experience of 37 cases is reported. For the first 10 years biopsy with radiotherapy was the first-line treatment (n = 20), but for the last 10 years surgical or laser excision biopsy alone has been performed (n = 17). The T stage of the carcinoma in situ does not determine its premalignant potential. Malignancy appears to be a recurrence, rather than a new expression of carcinogenesis. Excision biopsy alone provides local control results (75%) comparable to those of primary radiotherapy (85%). Excision biopsy alone, however, retains the option of subsequent radiotherapy with preservation of laryngeal function, but very close follow-up, especially in the first year, is required.

<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> Investigate the clinical and oncological results of early-stage glottic laryngeal carcinoma patients performed by a single surgeon. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> This study was carried out at a tertiary academic center. A total of 101 patients were included (92 males [91.1%], 9 females [8.9%]). Mean age was 62.98 ± 10.2 years (range 33–87). Recurrence, disease-free survival, overall survival, laryngeal preservation rates were analyzed. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Tumor stage was Tis (carcinoma in situ) in 11 patients (10.9%), T1a in 66 patients (65.3%), T1b in 12 patients (11.9%), and T2 in 12 patients (11.9%). Postoperative pathology was squamous cell carcinoma in 69 patients (68.3%), carcinoma in situ in 26 patients (25.7%), and high-grade dysplasia in 6 patients (5.9%). Five patients (5.0%) underwent type 1, 7 (6.9%) type 2, 45 (44.6%) type 3, 24 (23.8%) type 4, 6 (5.9%) type 5a, 8 (7.9%) type 5c, 4 (4.0%) type 5d, and 2 (2.0%) type 6 cordectomy. Median follow-up time was 30 months (range 14–66). There were 5 recurrences (5.0%). Three-year disease-free survival was 94.4%. Three-year disease-free survival for stage I and II patients was 94.9 and 91.7%, respectively. Overall survival was 93.8%. Only 1 patient died related to cardiovascular disease. Disease-specific survival was 100%. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> In conclusion, this is a large case series with good oncological outcomes presented with the perspective of a single surgeon. The data of the study is in accordance with the previous reports.

Introduction: For a long time, accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) effectiveness for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) has been debated, due to conflicting published results. Recent encouraging data from phase 3 trials reopened new perspectives for this radiation approach. The aim of the present study was to analyze the long-term efficacy and safety results of the series of patients with DCIS enrolled in the APBI arm of the APBI-IMRT-Florence phase 3 trial (NCT02104895). Methods: Patients were treated in a phase 3 randomized trial comparing whole breast irradiation (50 Gy in 25 fractions to the whole breast, plus 10 Gy in 5 fractions to the tumor bed) to APBI (30 Gy in 5 nonconsecutive fractions) using the intensity-modulated radiotherapy technique. Results: Overall, 22 patients were treated in the APBI arm. Median age was 62 years (mean 59; range 42–75 years). At a median follow-up of 9.2 years (mean 8.8; range 3.8–12.1 years), no contralateral invasive/DCIS occurrence, distant metastasis, or breast cancer–related death were recorded. The 5- and 10-year local recurrence, distant metastasis–free survival, and breast cancer–specific survival were 100%. The 10-year overall survival rate was 90.9%. No late toxicity at 5 and 10 years was recorded. Conclusions: Waiting for pending studies and mature follow-up, we confirmed the efficacy and safety of APBI for low-risk DCIS.
