Background. The treatment of the clinically negative (NO) neck in supraglottic laryngeal cancer continues to be an area of controversy. The aim of this study was to analyze the long-term efficacy of routine bilateral neck dissection compared with ipsilateral neck dissection in T1-T2 NO lateral supraglottic carcinomas. Methods. A retrospective review of 108 patients who underwent surgery for T1-T2 supraglottic squamous cell carcinoma was performed. Forty-eight had undergone ipsilateral functional neck dissection, and 60 had undergone bilateral functional neck dissections. None of these patients received adjuvant radiotherapy. Results. No significant differences (p =.78) in regional recurrence were observed between the patients treated with bilateral neck dissection (13%) and those treated with ipsilateral neck dissection (17%), The 5-year survival rates were 73% and 80% for the patients who received a bilateral and ipsilateral neck dissection, respectively (p =.51). Conclusions. This study suggests that routine bilateral neck dissection may not be necessary in the surgical treatment of all supraglottic cancers. (c) 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
