The nonsurgical options for patients with this disease are related to significant long-term toxicities and the need for persistent tracheostomy, which adversely affects the quality of life of these patients.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Objective\u2003To evaluate the need for tracheostomy, and the influence of this in the overall and specific survival rates of patients diagnosed with all stages of laryngeal carcinoma treated by chemoradiotherapy.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Methods\u2003A retrospective study of patients diagnosed with laryngeal carcinoma was performed according to the criteria of the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) and the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 7th edition, in a tertiary hospital.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Results\u2003A total of 21 patients were evaluated, 8 patients required a tracheotomy (31%) during the treatment protocol, 7 (35%) men and 1 (100%) women. According to subsite 4\/4 patient with glottis cancer (p \u2264 0.001), 2\/10 patients with supra glottis cancer and 2\/7 patients with hypopharyngeal cancer. During follow up, just in 1 patient was possible to close the tracheostomy.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Conclusion\u2003Persistent tracheostomy dependence after primary chemoradiation increases significantly the morbidity, and decreases the quality of life of those patients. Patients with glottis cancer are prone to need a tracheostomy, but no statistical difference regarding the oncological stage and the need for a tracheostomy were detected. A more thorough selection of the patients is needed to improve the quality of life and reduce permanent tracheostomy dependence.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0037-1601416","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,3]],"date-time":"2017-04-03T22:46:12Z","timestamp":1491259572000},"page":"377-381","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Persistent Tracheostomy after Organ Preservation Protocol in Patients Treated for Larynx and Hypopharynx Cancer"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Carlos","family":"Chiesa Estomba","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology \u2013 Head and Neck Surgery Department, Complexo Hospitalario Universitario de Vigo, Vigo, Pontevedra, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Frank","family":"Betances Reinoso","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology \u2013 Head and Neck Surgery Department, Complexo Hospitalario Universitario de Vigo, Vigo, Pontevedra, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Virginia","family":"Martinez Villasmil","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology \u2013 Head and Neck Surgery Department, Complexo Hospitalario Universitario de Vigo, Vigo, Pontevedra, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maria","family":"Gonz\u00e1lez Cort\u00e9s","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology \u2013 Head and Neck Surgery Department, Complexo Hospitalario Universitario de Vigo, Vigo, Pontevedra, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carmelo","family":"Santidrian Hidalgo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology \u2013 Head and Neck Surgery Department, Complexo Hospitalario Universitario de Vigo, Vigo, Pontevedra, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,3]]},"container-title":["International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0037-1601416.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,6]],"date-time":"2019-05-06T19:31:09Z","timestamp":1557171069000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0037-1601416"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,3]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"04","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,10,5]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2017,10]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0037-1601416","relation":{},"ISSN":["1809-9777","1809-4864"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1809-9777","type":"print"},{"value":"1809-4864","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,3]]}}}
