Combined transoral-transhyoid endoscopic approach for hypopharyngeal cancer.
Auris, Nasus, Larynx 2018 October
Endoscopic transoral surgery for hypopharyngeal cancer is an effective treatment option to avoid invasive open surgery or chemoradiation. Here we describe the case of a 66-year-old patient with cT2N0M0 pyriform sinus cancer whom we treated using a transoral-transhyoid endoscopic approach. Using this approach, a transhyoid route was created in addition to the transoral route and used to extirpate the tumor. En bloc resection of the tumor was completed without difficulty. A combined transoral-transhyoid approach is a useful surgical option for treatment of selected patients with hypopharyngeal cancer. This technique is straightforward to perform and can be used as a backup technique in endoscopic transoral surgery. Also, more complicated lesions can be resected by this approach than by a single-route transoral approach.
