ABSTRACT The larynx is located in the upper anterior portion of the neck. It lies between the 3 rd and 6th cervical vertebrae. The incidence of Squamous cell carcinoma (SSC) of the larynx is about 25% of all head and neck malignancies. The most common age involved is middle and old age (between 50 to 70 years). Unfortunately, it has been found that the tumour presents with advance stages at the time of diagnosis. This prospective literature has been done in the department of Otolaryngology in Alkindy Hospital in Iraq. Forty two patients with laryngeal tumour (SCC) at variable stage has been involved in the study. History taking using a special quastionair, proper ENT examination and radiological imaging has been taken from all participated patients. Our results shows that hoarseness of voice is the most common symptoms. Furthermore, men are more affected than women and the most common site involved by the tumour in the larynx is the supraglottic part. Further studies is required for accurate staging of the tumour using both clinical evaluation and radiological imaging.
