new technique of epiglottic mucosal free graft for treating laryngeal stenosis and vocal fold reconstruction
Meltem Akpınar, Hyung Tae Kim

Laryngeal stenosis remains one of the most challenging issues in laryngology, greatly impacting airway, voice, and quality of life. Drawing from extensive clinical experience and supporting evidence, I propose to present outcomes and surgical techniques of one-stage glottic and subglottic reconstruction using epiglottic mucosal free grafting. This method enables simultaneous treatment of complex stenosis with tissue from the same surgical field, facilitating early epithelialization and reducing morbidity. Furthermore, recent experience demonstrates that epiglottic mucosal free grafting is highly effective for vocal fold reconstruction and voice preservation following partial cordectomy for early laryngeal cancer. This keynote will address patient selection, surgical nuances, long-term voice and airway outcomes, and discuss the expanding role of this technique in modern laryngeal surgery.

Transoral laser microsurgery for early stage glottic laryngeal cancers
Hakkı Caner İNAN, Meltem Akpınar

Transoral laser surgery has an important place in early stage laryngeal cancers. Preoperative endoscopic and radiological evaluation of patients is important. Especially in glottic tumors, anterior commissure involvement is a poor prognostic criterion.
