Popis: The study included 62 patients with morphologically verified squamous cell carcinoma of laryngopharynx, stages T2-4N0-2M0. As a result of the treatment complete regression was recorded in 28.1 ± 7.9% of cases, partial regression--in 50.0 ± 8.8% of patients, and stabilization--in 21.9 ± 7.3% of cases. The total efficiency of therapy made up 78.1 ± 7.3%. Chemotherapy complications and radiation injuries did not exceed I-II grade by CTC-NCIC criteria and PTOG/EORTC scale, were easily stopped, did not affect the time periods of further treatment and had no considerable influence on the postoperative period. Conservative surgery was performed in 26% of cases. The total 5-year survival rate made up 65.4 ± 8.4%, relapse-free 5-year survival rate--60.6 ± 8.9%. The efficiency of the vocal function rehabilitation made up 73.9 ± 9.1%. Rehabilitation time was 21 ± 8.2 days.
