DETERMINATION OF THE PREVALENCE OF OCCULT NECK LYMPH NODE INVOLVEMENT IN PATIENTS WITH LARYNGEAL SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMA
Background & Aims: Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) accounts for 85% of laryngeal cancers. In some cases, lymph nodes do not show any specific symptoms despite being involved by cancer. Previous studies showed that patients undergoing selective neck lymph node dissection (SND) had significantly lower recurrence rates. We investigated the prevalence of occult neck lymph node involvement in patients...

متن کاملA Rare Case of Inguinal Lymph Node Metastasis from Supraglottic Laryngeal Carcinoma
Head and neck cancers are common among men in developing countries. Among head and neck cancers in the United States, supraglottic laryngeal cancer accounts for 12,500 new cases per year. It responds favorably to radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy depending on the stage of disease. Recurrence is local or locoregional. We report a unique case of carcinoma of the larynx with rare distal re...
