Description
Summary:Transthyrohyoid access to the larynx for endoscopic resection (TTER) for early‐stage glottic cancer in patients with difficult laryngeal exposure (DLE) has recently been developed. However, little is known about the postoperative conditions of patients. Twelve early‐stage glottic cancer patients with DLE who received TTER were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical information was collected during the perioperative period. Functional outcome was evaluated using Voice Handicap Index‐10 (VHI‐10) and Eating Assessment Tool‐10 (EAT‐10) preoperatively and 12 months after surgery. None of the patients experienced serious complications after TTER. The tracheotomy tube was removed in all patients. The 3‐year local control rate was 91.6%. The VHI‐10 score decreased from 18.92 to 11.75 (p
