Voice and Swallowing Outcomes After Early Laryngeal Cancer: A <scp>UK</scp> Based Multi‐Centre Study
Radiotherapy is associated with better short-term voice outcomes compared to TLM. Swallowing function remains largely unaffected by treatment type. This study highlights the need to include functional outcomes in treatment decisions and is the first UK multicentre prospective study to use standardised, multidimensional assessments of early recovery following treatment for early laryngeal cancer.
