Abstract
A total of 89 patients with glottic carcinoma were treated at Hahnemann Medical College and Hospital, and affiliate institutions from 1959 to 1971 inclusive. Patients were grouped into tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) categories and placed into appropriate stages; there were 38 (43%) Stage I, 21 (24%) Stage II, 19 (21%) Stage III, and 11 (12%) Stage IV. All patients were treated primarily by radiation therapy with surgery utilized only for recurrences. The 5 year tumor free survivals were: 89% for Stage I, 76% for Stage II, 53% for Stage III, and 9% for Stage IV. There were no significant complications from the radiation therapy course.
