Comparison of functional and oncological treatment outcomes after transoral robotic surgery and open surgery for supraglottic laryngeal cancer

AbstractObjectiveTo compare functional and oncological treatment outcomes among patients with supraglottic laryngeal cancers who underwent transoral robotic supraglottic laryngectomy and open supraglottic laryngectomy.MethodsA retrospective chart review was conducted of 17 patients treated by transoral robotic supraglottic laryngectomy and 20 patients treated by open supraglottic laryngectomy.ResultsNo tracheostomy or prolonged intubation was needed in the transoral robotic surgery group. Furthermore, that group had a shorter oral feeding time, hospitalisation and recovery period. There was no difference between groups in terms of complications. There were no differences in overall survival time and disease-specific survival time between groups.ConclusionTransoral robotic supraglottic laryngectomy for supraglottic laryngeal cancer is an oncologically safe and functional procedure with better results when compared to conventional open surgery.

Laryngeal Examination

AbstractAtypical carcinoid tumor of the larynx is a particularly rare occurrence. Here, we report a patient with a laryngeal neuroendocrine tumor (NET) who was treated with transoral robotic surgery-supraglottic laryngectomy (TORS-SL). A 73-year-old male patient, a known smoker, presented with throat pain and hoarseness for 1 month. Endoscopic laryngeal examination and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a left supraglottic mass. The results of histopathologic examination and immunohistochemical analysis were consistent with atypical carcinoid tumor of the larynx. A TORS-SL was performed. There was no recurrence during a follow-up period of 18 months. NETs of the larynx are a very heterogeneous group of tumors in terms of pathological features and biological behavior. The histological diagnosis is the most important step in the management of these tumors. Tumor histology is an important determinant of prognosis. TORS-SL is a promising, minimally invasive, endoscopic surgical alternative for the treatment of supraglottic tumors with good functional and clinical outcomes as seen in this case.
