Since laryngeal cancer lesions are located in key parts of the respiratory and digestive tracts, eating obstruction and poor breathing may also occur. Laryngeal cancer may also metastasize to the cervical lymph nodes and a lump may be found in the neck. Laryngeal cancer can be diagnosed by laryngoscopy or cervical lymph node biopsy. Laryngeal cancer should be treated with a comprehensive radical surgical treatment plan, including radiotherapy, chemotherapy, etc.

Treatment of mid- to late-stage laryngeal cancer

Laryngeal cancer is a common malignant tumor of the head and neck in clinical practice. The pathological type of the disease is mainly squamous cell carcinoma.

In the treatment of middle and late stage laryngeal cancer, the combination of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery is often the choice. For those who can undergo surgery, surgical treatment can be performed. According to the postoperative pathological conditions, chemotherapy can achieve better clinical results. For those who have lost the opportunity for surgery, radiotherapy or chemotherapy can be performed first. When the lesion becomes smaller, further surgical treatment can be performed, which often achieves better clinical results.
