متن کاملHypopharyngeal cancer: United Kingdom National Multidisciplinary Guidelines
This is the official guideline endorsed by the specialty associations involved in the care of head and neck cancer patients in the UK. With an age standardised incidence rate of 0.63 per 100 000 population, hypopharynx cancers account for a small proportion of the head and neck cancer workload in the UK, and thus suffer from the lack of high level evidence. This paper discusses the evidence bas...
متن کاملStaging of Laryngeal and Hypopharyngeal Cancer: Computed Tomography versus Histopathology
