Book Description: Presents surgical samples illustrating principles of diagnosis, staging and preoperative assessment for total or partial laryngectomy. Whole-organ sections show the pathways by which cancer spreads within these specimens and the barriers to its extension in early stages. The text provides a detailed anatomy of laryngeal cancer that forms the basis for interpreting views obtained by preoperative magnetic resonance imaging. It shows the anatomical features of the tumour that influence prognosis.
