Treatment of Advanced Carcinoma of the Larynx and Hypopharynx with Laser Followed by External Radiotherapy
Introduction: Radical laryngeal surgeries for extensive laryngeal and hypopharyngeal tumors often require a permanent tracheostomy, which has an immense impact on the quality of life of patients. A minimally invasive technique such as transoral laser microresection (TLM) followed by radiotherapy can preserve the functions of the voice and swallowing. The aim of this study is to evaluate the ro...

A 48-year-old male with a six-month history of dysphagia presented with a 2-cm-diameter mass in the left posterior wall of the hypopharynx. Histopathological examination reve...
متن کاملEvidence based pathology: squamous carcinoma of the hypopharynx
This best practice article reviews the published evidence on the pathology and patterns of spread of carcinomas of the hypopharynx, and the relevance of pathological features to prognosis. Medline (1966–2001) was searched using a combination of head and neck neoplasms and prognosis, focusing on hypopharynx and pathology. Other relevant publications were identified from the bibliographies of the...
متن کاملReconstruction of hypopharynx and cervical oesophagus for treatment of advanced hypopharyngeal carcinoma and recurrent laryngeal carcinoma.
OBJECTIVE To review our treatment strategy and outcomes in reconstructing the hypopharynx and cervical oesophagus with five techniques for advanced hypopharyngeal carcinoma and recurrent laryngeal carcinoma. METHODS Thirty-one patients treated between 1996 and 2007 were analysed retrospectively. Defects of the hypopharynx and cervical oesophagus were reconstructed using the remaining laryngea...
متن کاملTumours of the hypopharynx
The definition of these sites is shown in Table 13.1. The larynx projects into the hypopharynx from the front so that grooves, known as the pyriform fossae, are formed on either side. These are shallow above and are separated from the valleculae by the pharyngoepiglottic folds. Lower down, the pyriform fossae become deeper. The upper shallow part of the pyriform fossa is bounded laterally by th...
