ObjectiveSupracricoid laryngectomy with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy is a functional larynx-preserving surgery designed for T2 and well-selected T3–T4 glottic type laryngeal cancers. To obtain optimal functional results, proper surgical techniques must be used. Regardless of operating with skilled techniques, various post-operative complications may be encountered. In this study, we analyzed post-supracricoid laryngectomy with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy patients who received secondary surgical revisions because of neoglottal problems.MethodsWe analyzed the patients with laryngeal cancers (squamous cell carcinoma) who received supracricoid laryngectomy with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy between 1997 and 2015 at our institute. We retrospectively reviewed the clinical features, risk factors and the secondary revisions carried out.ResultsApproximately 20% of the 119 post-supracricoid laryngectomy with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy patients required secondary revisions to achieve a favorable neoglottis. Among the 24 patients, 14 (58%) demonstrated neoglottal stricture due to the redundant mucosa of the arytenoid and/or granulation, and were operated on with endoscopic resection. Four patients showed enlargement of the neoglottis, and buccal fat augmentation was performed. Four patients showed an inverted epiglottis and were treated by epiglottectomy through an endoscopic approach. Two patients exhibited cricoid chondritis due to cervical spur irritation, and they were treated by spur resection through an open approach. After secondary revision, the tracheal stoma was successfully closed in all 24 patients.ConclusionsHead and neck surgeons should be aware of the high risk of neoglottal complications after supracricoid laryngectomy with cricohyoidoepiglottopexy, and so need to be well prepared for secondary revisions. By promptly detecting and adopting proper revisions, neoglottal complications can be corrected and laryngeal functions recovered.
