Prognostic Impact of Anterior Commissure Involvement on Treatment Failure in Early‐Stage Glottic Carcinoma Treated With Definitive Radiotherapy: A Univariate and Multivariate Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Early‐stage glottic carcinoma is characterized by high cure rate, but about 10% of patients still develop local recurrence after radiotherapy (RT). Although advances in local therapies have markedly improved larynx preservation, anterior commissure involvement (ACI) may worsen outcomes yet remains insufficient to fully guide ...
