J J Piquet, and J A Darras, and A Burny, and A Desaulty

A retrospective study was conducted of 141 cases of laryngeal vestibule cancer treated by partial surgery between 1968 and 1977. Patients underwent either subglottic laryngectomy (105 cases) or subtotal laryngectomy with cricohyoidoplexy (36 cases). Operative mortality was 6.5 p. 100. Overall survival rate was 63 p. 100 at 3 years, with lymph node invasion in 32 p. 100 of cases, and a 3 year survival rate for group N of 71 p. 100 as against 50 p. 100 for group N+.

D004825	Epiglottis	A thin leaf-shaped cartilage that is covered with LARYNGEAL MUCOSA and situated posterior to the root of the tongue and HYOID BONE.

D012189	Retrospective Studies	Studies used to test etiologic hypotheses in which inferences about an exposure to putative causal factors are derived from data relating to characteristics of persons under study or to events or experiences in their past. The essential feature is that some of the persons under study have the disease or outcome of interest and their characteristics are compared with those of unaffected persons.
