Abstract:
In the Otolaryngology Clinic of the Medical Academy in Lublin in the 21 year period (1971-1991) there were performed 2488 microsurgical operations of the larynx. The authors analyse their own clinical material paying particular attention to relative precancer states, early diagnosis of laryngeal cancer and an increase of the number of preinvasive cancer (cancer in situ) diagnoses. The authors postulate that indications for clinical diagnostic and therapeutic procedures should be considerably extended in diseases of the larynx. There should be used an operating microscope which will considerably shorten hospitalization period of patients and significantly contribute to an increase of the percentage of early diagnoses of cancer of the larynx.
