Prognostic Value of Impaired Vocal Cord Mobility in T2N0 Glottic Cancer Treated With IMRT
T2N0M0 glottic cancers with impaired vocal cord mobility (VCM) have worse outcomes than T2N0M0 tumors with normal VCM, but still fare better than T3N0M0 disease. These findings support subdivision of T2 glottic cancer into T2a (normal VCM) and T2b (impaired VCM) in future TNM revisions.
