introduction

Incidence : 10,000 cases per year in U S A .

Most frequent upper aerodigestive tract cancer

The integration of chemotherapy and radiation therapy has expanded organ preservation options .

The patient’s perspective , with emphasis on retention of speech , swallowing , & quality of life has affected the decision making process.

Anatomy of larynx

area extending from : tip of epiglottis tolower border of cricoid cartilage .

divided into 3 anatomical subsites :Supraglottis glottis,subglottis.

peudostratified ciliated epithelium ( sup. & inf. Aspect )

Lamina propria : superficial ( Reink’s space ) intermediate & deep ( vocal lig.

* blood vessels & lymphatics are almost absent in Reinke’s space.

* no mucous glands on free edge of vocal cord .

Blood supply of the larynx

Arterial supply of larynx

•1- sup. Laryngeal a. ( branch of sup. Thyroid a. )

2- inf. Laryngeal a.

( branch of inf. Thyroid a. )

Cancer of the larynx

epidemiology

•10,000 new cases per year in U S A

etiology

Excessive tobacco use &

alcohol consumption .

Page 33: Cancer  of  the larynx
Page 34: Cancer  of  the larynx

Epidemiology of cancer larynx

- 1% of all cancer related deaths in U S A .- 10,000 new cases / year in U S A .- 5 year survival is 65 % .- Male to female ratio :

9,2 : 1 for glottic ca. 3-5 : 1 for supraglottic.

- Age : affect elderly . The peak incidence is 6th

& 7th decades .< 1% in < 30 years of age .

- No rational predominance in U S A .

Page 35: Cancer  of  the larynx

Risk factors- tobacco .

- Synergistic effect with heavy alcohol intake in

Smokers .

- occupational exposure

Radiological examination of cancer larynx

To reveal tumour invasion of laryngeal cartilages & extra laryngeal tissues .

With clinical / endoscopic examination result in proper staging accuracy .

Page 50: Cancer  of  the larynx

Imaging Studies:

•Chest radiographs, PA and lateral

To rule out

(1) A synchronous pulmonary tumor,(2) Acute or chronic pulmonary

disease (3) Metastatic tumor.

Consultations

•Radiation therapy

In anticipation of possible need for post-operative radiation therapy or to use radiation therapy as a definitive primary modality of treatment in early stage tumors.

Page 68: Cancer  of  the larynx

Consultations:

•Dental

To assess the status of the teeth and make recommendations considering that radiation therapy may be indicated. The evaluating dentist should be versed in the effects of radiotherapy on dentition. This evaluation should be done with knowledge of the treatment portals planned for the radiotherapy.

Page 69: Cancer  of  the larynx

Consultations

•Speech pathology

For pre-operative counseling regarding possible post-operative speech and swallowing rehabilitation.
