Stages of Larynx / Pharynx Cancer

Staging helps determine how far the cancer has spread and guides treatment decisions.

  • Stage I: Cancer limited to a small area in the throat.
  • Stage II: Tumor grows larger but remains localized.
  • Stage III: Cancer spreads to nearby lymph nodes.
  • Stage IV: Cancer spreads to nearby tissues or distant organs.

Diagnosis

A thorough clinical evaluation combined with imaging and biopsy helps confirm the presence and stage of cancer.

Physical examination of throat and neck
Endoscopy to examine internal structures
Biopsy for confirmation
CT/MRI scans for staging
PET scan in advanced cases

Accurate diagnosis helps in planning the most suitable and effective treatment approach.

Treatment Options for Larynx / Pharynx Cancer

Treatment is planned based on tumor size, location, stage, and the patient’s overall health condition.

Tumor Removal Surgery

Surgical removal of the cancerous growth while carefully preserving nearby nerves and structures responsible for voice and swallowing.

Partial or Total Laryngectomy

In advanced cases, part or all of the voice box may be removed to control cancer and prevent further spread.

Lymph Node Removal

If cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes, they may be surgically removed to reduce the risk of recurrence.

Chemotherapy

High-energy radiation is used to destroy remaining cancer cells and may be recommended before or after surgery.

Combined Modality Treatment

A combination of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy may be used for better control in complex or advanced stages.
