Description

We had questionnaires for 29 otolaryngologists at 8 hospitals in Tokai area. This investigational purpose was to ask otolaryngologists treatment strategy of early glottic cancer (GC). According to guidelines, the treatment choice for early GC is radiation therapy, transoral laser therapy, and partial laryngectomy. But, many doctors had a tendency to answer that they made a choice of chemoradiation because bulky T1 or T2 GC is not easy to control by radiation alone. (author)
