Abstract:
The management of laryngeal cancer and hypopharyngeal cancer has fundamentally changed over the recent years. The optimum treatment protocols should pay close attention to the survival rate and function preservation. The purpose of this article we aimed to define the prevalence of intervention of laryngeal cancer and hypopharyngeal cancer, such as open operation, CO2 laser and non-invasive treatments, and measures that may facilitate standardization of such practices.
