Abstract

Stapler closure versus manual closure in total laryngectomy for laryngeal cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis. However, we believe that the authors' conclusion that "the presented meta-analysis provides current evidence for the use of stapler closure in laryngeal cancer patients undergoing total laryngectomy" cannot be supported based on their meta-analysis. We read with interest the systematic review and meta-analysis on stapler closure vs manual closure in total laryngectomy for laryngeal cancer.1 The authors should be congratulated for attempting to answer this important question.
