Popis: Background The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of CT-determined pretreatment primary tumor volume on survival and disease control in T4a laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Methods We retrospectively reviewed 124 patients with T4a laryngeal cancer from 2000-2011. Tumor volume measurements were collected and correlated with outcomes. Results Five-year overall survival (OS) for patients with tumor volume ≥21 cm3 treated with larynx preservation (n = 26 of 41) was significantly inferior compared to
