This study is concerned wi th patients selection for irradiation alone or combined treatment with surgery. Emphasis is directed to the analysis of effectiveness of radical radiotherapy instead of partial laryngectomy in T-1, T-2 and early T-3 lesion. A satisfactory control of laryngeal disease and preservation of a normal voice ranging from 100% for $T_1N_0$ lesions, 61.1% for $T_2N_0$ to 50% for $T_3N_0$. But 47.1% of cases with node metastasis on admission had poor results to irradiation suggesting of necessicity of combined treatment. 5 year recurrence-free survivals was 43.3% in all cases with supraglottic carcinoma treated by irradiation alone, although it was 87.5% in T-1 and 51.8% in T-2.
