Cancer of the Larynx

Using as its source the experienced Birmingham and West Midlands Regional Cancer Registry, this volume deals with cancer of the larynx and sets out to examine not only the epidemiology but also the clinical course through treatment and recurrence to death. The text aims to present information which will be a base-line against which other cancer specialists can compare their procedures, as well as providing confirmation of aspects of the behaviour of this cancer and useful clinical data and guidance. The subject has been approached on a clinical basis and is directed towards clinicians and others interested in the subject. The authors stress the importance of their sub-site analyses, which elucidate variations or changes in both incidence and survival and can be demonstrated to be of crucial importance in treatment selection and planning.
