By Paula Moyer Special to DG News SAN DIEGO, CA — September 27, 2002 —
Endoscopic salvage surgery using a CO2 laser is as effective as open-neck surgery in addressing recurrent glottic carcinoma, say researchers. While recurrent glottic carcinoma can be treated either by surgically or endoscopically, an endoscopic approach has the obvious advantage of saving the larynx, said Dr. Roberto Puxeddu, a practicing head and neck surgeon in Cagliari, Italy.
He sought to determine whether this approach was as effective as open surgery and presented his and his co-investigators’ findings here at the 106th annual meeting of the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Foundation.
