ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the value of CT findings in the diagnosis of laryngeal carcinoma infiltration extent.Method:The data of comparison of CT findings and clinico-pathologic stages on 61 patients with laryngeal carcinoma were analyzed from 1995 to 1999.There were 58 males and 3 females ,ranging in age from 37 to 83 years old which stages were T1N0M0 in 11,T2N0M0 in 21,T2N1M0 in 9,T2N2M0 in 1,T2N3M0 in 1,T3N0M0 in 10,T3N1M0 in 2,T4N0M0 in 4 and T4N1M0 in 2,respectively.And the supraglottic cancer was 11(18.0%,11/61),glottic cancer 47(77.1%,47/61),transglottic cancer 3(4.9%,3/61),respectively.The CT examination and surgical treatment were made in all 61 patients.Results:The correct rate at CT findings was 91.8%(56/61),and the accurate rate of clinical stage was 73.8%(45/61).These results showed different significance (P＜0.05).Conclusion:The CT findings showed valuable in the diagnosis to infiltration extent of laryngeal carcinoma and clinical significance for surgical treatment of patients with laryngeal carcinoma.
