Özet

Objective: In laryngeal cancer the most suspected regions of invasion are preepiglottic space (PES), anterior commissure (AC), thyroid cartilage (TC), subglottic region (SR) and extralaryngeal spread (ELS). The objective of this study is to compare the results of preoperative computed tomography (CT) with postoperative histopathologic analysis in these critical regions for the total or partial laryngectomy.
