The margin status after CO2 laser cordectomy for glottic carcinoma may influence prognosis. There are no studies assessing the possible bias due to anatomic changes of the specimens for shrinkage. The authors evaluated the intraoperative shrinkage of specimens immediately after transoral CO2 laser microsurgery (CO2 TOLMS) to improve the understanding and the interpretation of surgical margins.

Abstract
The margin status after CO2 laser cordectomy for glottic carcinoma may influence prognosis. There are no studies assessing the possible bias due to anatomic changes of the specimens for shrinkage. The authors evaluated the intraoperative shrinkage of specimens immediately after transoral CO2 laser microsurgery (CO2 TOLMS) to improve the understanding and the interpretation of surgical margins.
