Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. ECOG Performance status 0-1 2. =18 years of age 3. Histopathologically confirmed, previously untreated unilateral (cT1a or unilateral cTis) stage 0 or I glottic larynx cancer 4. History and physical examination within 28 days prior registrations

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Infection hampering the voice quality at the time of voice assessment 2. Involvement of the anterior commissure by the tumor 3. Previous oncologic surgery with curative intent (exception: excisional biopsies resulting in unacceptable close R0 or R1/R2 margins may be included) or radiotherapy to larynx 4. Synchronous or previous malignancies. Exceptions are adequately treated basal cell carcinoma or SCC of the skin, or in situ carcinoma of the cervix uteri, low-risk prostate cancer or breast with a cancer-free follow-up time of at least 3 years, or other previous malignancy with a progression-free interval of at least 5 years 5.
