The computed tomography (CT) scans and laryngograms of 25 patients with laryngeal cancer were compared and evaluated in an assessment of the diagnostic accuracy of each modality in the supraglottis glottic, and subglottic regions. Fourth generation scanners were used in these patients, all of whom subsequently underwent laryngectomy or partial laryngectomy. The clinical superiority of CT scanning was evident in several areas—confirming clinical impressions that laryngography is not as accurate as CT, is frequently misleading, and offers no significant advantages over CT. In this regard, we now believe that computed tomography is the most important radiologic adjunct in the diagnosis of laryngeal cancer, and we no longer order the laryngogram on a routine basis.

AbstractIntroduction:Radiological imaging plays an indispensable, complementary role to endoscopy in the pre-therapeutic assessment of laryngeal cancer. We evaluated the reliability of radiological imaging in determining the extent of cancer and surgical resection, by comparing the results of pre-operative computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging with those for post-operative pathological analysis.Material and methods:Twenty-nine patients who had undergone laryngeal cancer surgery with a diagnosis of supraglottic cancer were reviewed. Imaging reliability was assessed for separate subunit regions of the supraglottic area, the glottic area and the cartilage.Results:The false diagnosis rate for all subunits was 25 per cent. The rate of false diagnosis associated with overstaging was 21 per cent. The rate of false diagnosis associated with understaging was 4 per cent.Conclusion:In order to give the best chance of laryngeal preservation, especially in the case of false positive laryngeal subsites, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging should be combined with pre-operative endoscopy and intra-operative frozen section diagnosis.
