OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate and compare the outcomes in patients undergoing pharyngeal closure with the linear stapler and suture techniques after total laryngectomy.
METHODS: Forty-one patients who needed total laryngectomy for laryngeal cancer were enrolled in the study. Patients were randomized into two groups according to the pharyngeal closure technique: the linear stapler group (Group A) and the suture closure group (Group B). Rate of pharyngocutaneous fistula (PCF), nasogastric tube (NGT) removal time and pharyngeal closure time were analyzed and compared between the two groups.
RESULTS: PCF developed in three patients in Group A (14.3%) and in seven patients in Group B (35%). Although the rate of PCF was lower in Group A, this did not represent a statistical difference (p:0.129). Median NGT removal time was 12 days (IQR=3) and 19.5 days (IQR=1) in Groups A and B, respectively. Median NGT removal time was not statistically different between the two groups (p:0.642). All patients were able to swallow liquids and solids without difficulty. Median pharyngeal closure time was 3 minutes (IQR=1) and 37.5 minutes (IQR=9) in Groups A and B, respectively. Median pharyngeal closure time was significantly lower in Group A (p:0.00).
CONCLUSION: The linear stapler technique in total laryngectomy is a reliable, safe, easy-to-apply and time-saving method. Closure with linear stapler significantly reduces pharyngeal closure time without adverse effect on NGT removal times and PCF rates.
