KTP Laser Treatment of Early Glottic Cancer: A Multi-Institutional Retrospective Study.

CONCLUSIONS: A multi-institutional, retrospective case series of TLM-KTP ablation of EGC demonstrated excellent oncologic outcomes when close surveillance and proactive re-treatments were utilized. Disease-specific survival, overall survival, and vocal function were excellent. Additional studies are necessary to further analyze the merits and risks of this treatment approach.
