In this video, Dr Sridhar PS, consultant radiation oncologist at HCG Cancer Care Center, Bengaluru, will talk about his patient, Dakshina Ranjan, a 65-year-old male. The patient was from Assam, had difficulty swallowing, and was diagnosed with tongue cancer.
In May 2022, Dakshina Ranjan consulted a local ENT physician in Assam. After an MRI and CT scan, it was suspected to be throat cancer. In June 2022, he was diagnosed with cancer and came to Bangalore for consultation with Dr Sridhar at HCG Hospital. He got the treatment under the supervision of Dr. Sridhar. He received six cycles of chemotherapy and 33 fractions of radiation therapy. Now he is free of cancer and feels a lot better than before. He learned about the harmful effects of tobacco and asked everyone to quit it.
Anyone who feels pain or discomfort in their throat or mouth should consult a doctor and get treated.

Larynx Anatomy | Radiology anatomy part 1 prep | CT interpretation
Larynx Anatomy | Radiology anatomy part 1 prep | CT interpretation administrator 6 Views • 2 years ago

I've created a radiology physics question bank. Check it out here 👉 https://www.radiologytuts.com/....courses/xray-physics

Let's review the anatomy of the larynx on CT and barium swallow. We'll cover laryngeal anatomy, focusing on the hyoid bone, epiglottis, and the thyroid, cricoid and arytenoid cartilages.

I show you how to differentiate the true and false vocal cords. We also divide the larynx into three laryngeal spaces (used for staging laryngeal cancer): the supraglottic, glottic and subglottic spaces.

Throat cancer is a general term, that applies commonly 2 types of cancers: Laryngeal cancers and pharyngeal cancers. Pharyngeal cancers are near esophagus and back of the tongue, while laryngeal cancers near voice box.
Main symptoms of these cancers are:
throat pain, shortness of breath, persistent sore throat or cough, coughing up blood
changes to the voice such as hoarseness, difficulties swallowing, feeling there is something stuck in the throat, lumps in the neck or throat and sudden unexplained weight loss.
Laryngeal cancers represent one-third of head and neck cancers and may be a significant source of morbidity and mortality. They are most often diagnosed in patients with a significant smoking history.
Early stage disease is usually highly curable with either surgical or radiation monotherapy, often larynx-preserving. The late-stage disease is associated with worse outcomes, warrants multimodal therapy, and is less likely to allow for the preservation of the larynx.
Smoking is the most significant risk factor for cancers of the larynx, associated with an estimated 70% to 95% of all cases.
An association with heavy alcohol consumption has also been characterized, though the independent effect of alcohol is not clear given that combined use with tobacco is noted in most cases. Marijuana smoking may play a role in younger patients.
Other risk factors for laryngeal cancer and other throat cancers include the following:
Advanced age,
Diet low in green leafy vegetables.
Infection with HPV,
Diet rich in fats and salt-preserved meat.
The mean age of patients is 65 years.
The vast majority of laryngeal cancers are well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. A minority of cases represent squamous cell variants.
Patients are typically male with a history of current or past tobacco smoking. Hoarseness is often an early presenting symptom of glottic cancers due to vocal cord immobility or fixation, with pain with swallowing and referred ear pain indicating advanced disease. In contrast, pain with swallowing is the most common early symptom of supraglottic cancer, with hoarseness indicating advanced disease extending into the glottis.
Nodal metastases present as fixed, firm, painless masses in the neck. Late symptoms across all subsites include weight loss, dysphagia, aspiration, and its sequelae, and airway compromise.
The most crucial component of a physical examination is an invasive assessment of the primary lesion, including indirect laryngoscopy, mirror exam, and often fiberoptic endoscopy.
The most valuable diagnostic method are biopsy during direct laryngoscopy of the suspected primary lesion, and fine-needle aspiration (FNA) of any suspected nodal disease.
late stage, imaging of the primary lesion and draining lymph nodes is indicated, usually with contrast-enhanced CT of the neck.
Treatment is surgical and surgical and radiation.
Early-stage laryngeal cancers, Stage I and II, without lymph node metastases, are treated successfully with a single, locally-directed treatment modality, whether local radiation therapy or surgery.
Prior to any surgery, blood work is necessary that includes CBC, platelet count, liver and renal function, blood type, thyroid function, electrolytes, and albumin levels.
