Overview
The feasibility of surgery depends on the stage of hypopharyngeal cancer at the time of diagnosis. The main goal of the surgery is to clear any margin with tumor cells. The available surgery options are transoral laser surgery, total laryngectomy with partial pharyngectomy surgery, total laryngectomy and circumferential pharyngectomy.
Surgery
The feasibility of surgery depends on the stage of hypopharyngeal cancer at the time of diagnosis. Surgical resection is a better option in the following situations:[1]
- Transoral laser surgery
- Total laryngectomy with pharyngectomy surgery
- Total laryngectomy and circumferential pharyngectomy
