Abstract
Parastomal recurrence occurs in around 5% of patients undergoing total laryngectomy for laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. It carries a poor prognosis which has changed little over the last 50 years, and poses a significant challenge to the head and neck surgeon. At present, surgical excision offers the only realistic chance of cure, although patients must be selected carefully following thorough work-up and in-depth multidisciplinary team discussion. This article provides a review of the literature on the management of parastomal recurrence following total laryngectomy.
