RESUMO
Hypopharyngeal carcinomas are considered indolent, silent tumors. These tumors dictate a high index of suspension. They can present with a myriad of symptoms and clinical complaints. The silent nature of these tumors unfortunately causes a high number of patients to present with advanced disease. A multimodality approach is often used. Although our approach to this disease has advanced, the overall mortality remains high at 5 years.
