Can metastatic glottic cancer be cured?

1. The spread of glottic laryngeal cancer is incurable and is usually treated with maintenance therapy, which can prolong the patient's survival time.

2. Glottic laryngeal cancer refers to a malignant tumor that originates in the vocal cords, causing symptoms such as hoarseness, tiredness in pronunciation, and difficulty breathing. In the early stages of the disease, the symptoms are mild and not easy to metastasize to other parts. Some patients can be clinically cured through minimally invasive surgery or radical radiotherapy. When the disease develops to the late stage, the tumor grows rapidly and has metastasized to multiple sites such as the cervical lymph nodes. At this time, surgical treatment is no longer possible, so it cannot be cured. It is necessary to choose chemical drugs for maintenance treatment based on the actual condition, such as methotrexate tablets, cyclophosphamide for injection, etc., which can delay the progression of the disease and improve the quality of life to a certain extent.

3. During the illness period, you need to pay attention to the hygiene of the oral cavity, adhere to the good habit of brushing your teeth in the morning and evening, and rinsing your mouth after meals. At the same time, you should have a regular diet and appropriately supplement with lean pork, beef, mutton and other foods, but stay away from greasy, raw, cold and highly irritating foods.
