Abstract
The five-year results of 1 000 consecutive cases of cancer of the larynx operated on at the Clinic of Otolaryngology of the University of Florence are presented. The treatment was cordectomy for T1a glottic cancers and total laryngectomy for the other cases. The five year cure rate is 66.5% of the 606 supraglottic cancers, 76.9% of the 294 glottic cancers and 54% of the 100 subglottic cancers. These crude survival rates consider the 7.6% of patients who died from non-tumoral causes and the 1.1% of untraced patients.
