Abstract:
Given the important position and function of the hypopharynx, the preservation of organ function and survival improvement are equally important. The optimal role of multi-disciplinary combined treatment modality becoming increasingly important. The optimal laryngeal preservation strategy for hypopharyngeal cancer is under continuous exploration. With the constant research of surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and molecular targeted therapy, new laryngeal preservation strategies continue to emerge. Herein, we primarily summarize the advances in multi-disciplinary combined treatment and the future direction in the treatment of hypopharyngeal carcinoma.
