%X <b><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">Objectives:</span></b><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> To study the epidemio-clinical, therapeutic and evolutionary aspects of
laryngeal cancers in the ENT department of the University Hospital Gabriel
Toure.</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> </span><b><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">Materials and Methods:</span></b><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> This was a descriptive, retrospective study over a period of 11 years
from January 2008 to December 2019. We made an exhaustive sampling of all cases
of malignant tumor</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">s</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> of the larynx in the ENT department of the University Hospital Gabriel
TOURE. Variables studied: frequency, sex, age, clinic, imaging, histology, TNM
classification, treatment received and follow-up time was 1 to 11 years.</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> </span><b><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">Result:</span></b><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> we noted a male predominance (44 men/13 women). The average age was 52.23
years</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">,</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> with extremes of 32 and 74 years. Smoking was reported by 40 patients
(72% of cases). The average in pack</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">-</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">years is
29.32 with extremes of 4 to 60 packs/</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> </span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">year.
Alcoholism was reported by 6 patients (9% of cases). Squamous cell carcinoma
was the predominant histological type (100%)</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">;</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> extension to 2 or 3 floors was objectified in 69% of cases. Complementary
radiotherapy in 26 patients after total laryngectomy. Chemotherapy was done in
a neoadjuvant situation in 36 cases. Overall survival was: 52.6% at 1 year,
33.3% at 3 years; 26.3% at 5 years and 12.28% at 11 years. <b>Conclusion:</b> Most often</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">,</span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> late diag<span>nosis </span></span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">is </span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">due to the absence of a national strategy and the
underestimation of the first symptoms. Surgery coupled with radiotherapy is the
treatment of choice.
