hey!!
________
▪The larynx has three subsites: the supraglottis, the glottis and the subglottis.
▪In the USA, glottic cancer accounts for 60% of all laryngeal cancers, 35% of supraglottic cancers and 5% of subglottic cancers, and in Korea in 1991, supraglottic and glottic cancers account for 49.5 and 37% of laryngeal cancers.
hope help u!!
______________
Tumors that arise from each of the subsites must be treated according to their characteristic. Because glottic cancer is seldom metastatic to the neck, neck treatment at an early stage is not considered.
▪ Conversely, supraglottic cancer is metastatic to the neck at early stage, so neck management is always considered.
Subglottic cancer is very rare, but theoretically can metastasize to the neck at early stage.
