[Clinical and endoscopic aspects of surgically treated laryngeal cancer]
Abstract:
This paper presents the results of fibroendoscopic examinations of 74 patients with laryngeal cancer of II-IV degree. Tumor dissemination was T2NO in 25 patients, T3NO in 36 patients, and T4NO in 13 patients. All the patients underwent modified resection patterns: 53 patients--horizontal resection (4 modifications) and 21 patients--frontolateral resection in the lower modification. Altogether 170 fibroendoscopic examinations were performed. Fibrolaryngoscopy helps to examine all laryngeal structures, evaluate and differentiate changes after various modifications of organ-preserving operations in the case of laryngeal cancer, and to detect at an early postoperative stage further tumor growth. Correct assessment of postoperative changes in the larynx prior to fibrolaryngoscopy can be carried out on the basis of reliable information about the operation, amount of tissue removed, and organ reconstruction.

Anatomy of the Larynx
The larynx consists of various components, including cartilage, muscles, and vocal cords. Its structure includes three large unpaired cartilages—the thyroid, cricoid, and epiglottis—and three smaller paired cartilages—the arytenoids, corniculates, and...

Bronchoscopy
Description
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves direct visualization of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A flexible fiber optic or rigid bronchoscope is used to carry out the procedure. The fiber-optic bronchoscope is more frequently used due to...
