Abstract:
Primary subglottic carcinoma is a rare subgroup of laryngeal malignancy with exact incidence unknown due to the lack of a standard definition of its anatomic boundaries. Early-stage subglottic carcinoma can be treated with either primary radiation or surgery with similar overall survival rates. Most patients present at an advanced stage due to a paucity of symptoms, and these patients are treated in a multidisciplinary fashion. Particular attention should be paid to the prelaryngeal and pretracheal nodal basins, as well as the stoma region, when managing these patients.
