The Department of Veterans Affairs Laryngeal Cancer Study propelled the combination of chemotherapy and radiation therapy to the forefront of strategies used for the management of locally advanced laryngeal cancer. The organ preservation rate was 84%. However, over the past 30 years that these approaches have been in place, there have been concerns regarding long-term survival and high failure rates requiring salvage. Furthermore, salvage laryngectomy, if feasible when considering increased morbidity after CRT, is fraught with a higher risk of wound complications including fistula, longer hospitalization, and reduced quality of life.
