This paper, written to honor the memory of one the greatest developers of ENT surgery, Professor R. Poch Viñals, presents a summary of what has been achieved in the surgical treatment of laryngeal carcinoma since the earlier attempts to eradicate this tumor up to the present time. These developments are written by someone who has lived and actively participated in the fight against this tumor from the time when really positive results were obtained up to nowadays. Currently, surgery still produces better results in the treatment of larynx malignancies than other therapeutic methods. However, we do not consider that the cancer cure results obtained with surgery are definitive. Therefore, physical and medical therapies should not be forgotten in our daily work since the latter--the only systemic treatment of cancer--is that in which we have our hopes.
本文旨在纪念耳鼻喉外科最伟大的开拓者之一R. Poch Viñals教授，概述了自早期尝试根除喉癌至今，在喉癌外科治疗方面所取得的成就。这些进展由一位从真正取得积极成果之时起便一直生活并积极投身于抗击这种肿瘤斗争直至如今的人撰写。目前，在喉恶性肿瘤的治疗中，手术仍比其他治疗方法产生更好的效果。然而，我们并不认为手术所取得的癌症治愈结果是最终的。因此，在我们的日常工作中不应忘记物理治疗和药物治疗，因为后者——癌症的唯一全身治疗方法——是我们寄予希望的治疗方式。
