- Abstract
Objective ?Our objective was to analyze the outcome of patients with laryngeal cancer or hypopharyngeal cancer treated with curative radiotherapy or the combination of surgery with postoperative radiotherapy. Methods?A total of 37 patients treated from January 2012 to August 2016 were reviewed. In 19 cases theated with the combination of surgery with postoperative radiotherapy(group A), 6 cases were treated with postoperative concurrent chemoradiotherapy? 1 case was treated with postoperative radiotherapy plus Sodium Glycididazole. Of the other 18 cases theated with radical radiotherapy (group B), 14 cases were treated with concurrent radiochemotherapy, 1 case was treated with radiotherapy plus Sodium Glycididazole and 3 cases were treated with radiotherapy alone. Results?The patients of the two groups were similar with respect to mean ages, original sites, stages, T stages, and N stages. The 3-years local control rates were 60.8%, and no statistical difference were observed between the two groups(47.1% vs.59.5%, P= 0.364). The 3-year overall survival rate was 54.4%, and no statistical difference were observed between the two groups(51.69% vs.70.67%, P=0.277). The 3-year disease free survival rates were 42.1%, and no statistical difference were observed between the two groups(34.6% vs.49.6%, P=0.277). Conclusions Radical radiotherapy is an effective treatment for supraglottic laryngeal carcinoma and hypopharyngeal carcinoma.
