Can I have children if I have advanced laryngeal cancer? I believe everyone knows about laryngeal cancer. The incidence of this disease has been increasing in recent years, so many people are worried about getting this disease. Laryngeal cancer is a common cancer today, and laryngeal cancer mostly occurs in adults. Can I have children if I have advanced laryngeal cancer?

Can I have children if I have advanced laryngeal cancer?

Cancer patients should not get pregnant before they are cured. Pregnancy will affect the nutrition and physical strength of the patient. If the patient still needs intermittent maintenance treatment, most of the drugs are cytotoxic drugs that are toxic to the fetus, which will cause fetal malformation, miscarriage, and premature birth. If you are already pregnant, you should try to terminate the pregnancy as soon as possible. Clinical data have shown that pregnancy can promote the recurrence and metastasis of cancer, and also bring many difficulties to treatment, affecting the efficacy. If you are a patient with reproductive system or breast tumors, whether you can get pregnant should be consulted by oncology and gynecology experts. If it really has no effect on your health and you have the ability to get pregnant, you can consider pregnancy. But it is generally better not to get pregnant, so as to avoid the imbalance of the endocrine system in the body and disturb the patient's health. It is possible to have children in the early stage, but it is not recommended to have children in the middle and late stages. Taking too many drugs in the late stage will have too much impact on the child. Moreover, the body does not allow it.

Patients with cancer are worried that they will die. It is true that cancer cannot be cured if it reaches the late stage, but how high is the mortality rate?

Laryngeal cancer has a high incidence rate among head and neck malignant tumors, accounting for 11.6% to 20% of malignant tumors in otolaryngology-head and neck surgery and 2% of systemic tumors. The incidence of laryngeal cancer has been increasing in recent years. Mortality rate: 2/100,000-4.4/100,000. It is divided into high differentiation, moderate differentiation and low differentiation according to the degree of pathological differentiation. The treatment plan and prognosis of laryngeal cancer with different degrees of differentiation are very different. Recurrence and metastasis are the main reasons for the high mortality rate of laryngeal cancer. Lymph node metastasis is an early event and an independent prognostic factor of laryngeal cancer metastasis. In laryngeal cancers of different degrees of differentiation, the process of laryngeal cancer lymph node metastasis may involve many different molecules and genes, including tumor lymphangiogenesis-related genes, cell adhesion molecules, cytokines, tumor metastasis-related genes, etc. Therefore, predicting and diagnosing the pathological grade and lymph node metastasis of laryngeal cancer is of great significance to the prognosis and treatment of patients.
