Refining prognostic subcategories in intermediate-advanced glottic cancer: A multicentric study on 637 patients treated by transoral laser microsurgery.
[BACKGROUND] The current TNM staging system does not fully address the variations in glottic squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) extension and subsites involvement, especially if treated with transoral laser microsurgery (TOLMS). This study aims …

Transoral laser exoscopic surgery of the larynx: state of the art and comparison with traditional transoral laser microsurgery.
[OBJECTIVE] To evaluate the efficacy of transoral laser exoscopic surgery (TOLES) in a unicentric series of patients affected by benign and malignant glottic and supraglottic lesions, and compare outcomes with those of transoral laser micro…

Lateral hypopharyngectomy with laryngeal preservation reconstructed with inlay fascio-cutaneous free flaps: clinical and functional outcomes.
[OBJECTIVE] Lateral hypopharyngectomy (LH) is one of the organ-preservation surgical strategies available for treatment of selected naïve early squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), as well as for rarer non-SCC tumours and persistent/recurrent/sec…

Magnetic resonance diagnosis of laryngeal chondritis after transoral laser microsurgery for laryngeal cancer.
[OBJECTIVE] Laryngeal chondritis (LC) is a rare complication of carbon dioxide transoral laser microsurgery (CO TOLMS) for laryngeal tumours and can pose a diagnostic challenge. Its magnetic resonance (MR) features have not been previously …

Transoral Laser Microsurgery for Glottic Cancer in Patients Over 75 Years Old.
[OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS] Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) has a non-negligible incidence in elderly patients. However, there is still no clear indication on the ideal treatment for early-intermediate glottic LSCC in this specific age…

Is the exoscope ready to replace the operative microscope in transoral surgery?
[PURPOSE OF REVIEW] Exoscopes are external digital devices that provide enhanced and magnified visualization of the surgical field. They usually have dedicated digital controls and a more compact mechanical structure than operative microsco…

Magnetic resonance imaging to assess cartilage invasion in recurrent laryngeal carcinoma after transoral laser microsurgery.
[OBJECTIVE] To evaluate the diagnostic performance of magnetic resonance (MR) with surface coils in assessing cartilage invasion in recurrent laryngeal carcinoma after carbon dioxide transoral laser microsurgery (CO TOLMS). [METHODS] Two e…

Compartmental Surgery for Oral Tongue Cancer: Objective and Subjective Functional Evaluation.
[OBJECTIVE] To assess functional outcomes in patients treated by compartmental tongue surgery (CTS) and reconstruction for advanced oral tongue/floor-of-mouth cancer. [STUDY DESIGN] Retrospective case series. [METHODS] A retrospective coh…

Long-term Oncologic Outcomes of 1188 Tis-T2 Glottic Cancers Treated by Transoral Laser Microsurgery.
[OBJECTIVE] To evaluate long-term disease-specific survival (DSS) and organ preservation (OP) rates in patients affected by Tis-T2 glottic squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) treated by carbon dioxide transoral laser microsurgery (CO TOLMS). [ST…
