Five years cumulative overall and disease-specific survival (DSS) rates were 52.1% and 63.8%, respectively. DSS rates in cases treated with surgery and those with RT were 65.1% and 56.1%, respectively. N2c status showed the worst prognosis according to nodal disease classification. Local control rates for cases treated with TPLE, PPX, and RT were 97.3%, 100%, and 80.4%, respectively. The effective rate of ICT was 79%, and laryngeal preservation was achieved in 79% of the cases with ICT. Recurrence occurred in 20 cases. Approximately half of the recurrence was distant disease. In the end, 17 cases died of the primary disease, while 10 cases died of other causes, mainly second primary cancers.
