Human papillomavirus and laryngeal cancer / 中华耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma is one of the common head and neck cancers, and it ranks the second in the incidence of head and neck cancers. Smoking and alchol are considered the main causes of the disease in the past. Since 1982, when scholars first proposed that human papillonavirus(HPV) was associated with the development of laryngeal cancer, there have been a large number of studies on the correlation between HPV and laryngeal cancer, but the results are different. Therefore, this article summarizes the progress of related researches on the relationship between HPV and laryngeal cancer in recent years, and explores the impact of HPV on the treatment strategy of laryngeal cancer.
