Abstract

Background: Total LARYNGECTOMY is the mainstay of treatment for laryngeal cancer. FISTULA is one of the most common complications after total LARYNGECTOMY. In patients without risk factors such as prior radiotherapy, diabetes mellitus or chronic renal disease, the incidence of pharyngocutaneous FISTULA is related to wound healing and duration of operation. We have developed a new method that is both simple and without the complication of pharangocutaneous FISTULA. Herein, we report the efficacy of this innovative method for the closure of total LARYNGECTOMY compared to the conventional method for closure.Methods: In this clinical trial, we included 40 patients with grade T3 or T4 squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx. The total LARYNGECTOMY of all patients was performed by the standard method. Twenty patients (case group) were repaired by the new method for closure and 20 patients (control group) were repaired by the standard method. Duration of surgery and hospital stay, bleeding, hematoma, seroma and FISTULA formation were characterized for every patient and statistically analyzed.Results: The mean age was 59.8 ±7.8 years for the control group and 61.3 ±6.4 years for the case group. Duration of surgery was 150 ±23.2 minutes and 130 ±18.7 minutes for the control and case groups, respectively (p<0.001). Duration of hospital stay was 10.5 ±1.6 and 3.1 ±0.2 days in the control and case groups, respectively (p<0.002). Bleeding, hematoma or seroma were not seen in either group. Pharyngocutaneous FISTULA occurred in three patients in control group and was not observed in case group.Conclusion: This new method for closure shortens the duration of surgery and hospital stay. Furthermore, the patients in the case group avoided the psychological and traumatic side effects of tube feeding associated with FISTULA. In addition, no other complications were observed with this method. We recommend the use of this simple and efficient method for WOUND CLOSURE after total LARYNGECTOMY.
