A retrospective analysis of the medical records and operative files of 124 patients who consecutively underwent supracricoid partial laryngectomy with cricohyoidopexy (SCPL-CHP) was undertaken. The objective of this study was to analyze the postoperative course and functional results of SCPL-CHP. The mean duration of follow-up was 7 years (range 1 to 20 years). The postoperative mortality was 1.6%. The average times until tracheostomy and nasogastric feeding tube removal were 8 and 22 days, respectively. All patients but 1 were decannulated. The rate of pneumonia from aspiration was 11.5%. Completion total laryngectomy and permanent gastrostomy were required in 2.5% and 2.5% of patients, respectively. Overall normal swallowing without permanent gastrostomy and respiration without tracheostomy were achieved by the first postoperative year in 91% and 99.1% of patients, respectively. Univariate analysis of the potential correlation between various variables and the duration of the tracheostomy and nasogastric feeding tube, the incidence and causes of mortality, the incidence and type of the various complications, the recovery of swallowing, and the length of hospitalization is presented. The report also discusses the management and follow-up care.
