The role of multispiral computed tomography in assessing tumor resectability in early laryngeal cancer: a clinical case

The described clinical case demonstrates the importance of multispiral computed tomography (MSCT) in the diagnosis of early laryngeal cancer using the developed form for assessing tumor resectability. The article presents the case of patient Ts. 68 years old with a verified diagnosis of stage 1 laryngeal cancer.In September 2024, complaints of hoarseness appeared, no treatment was carried out, in February 2025 the patient sought medical help from an ENT doctor. Suspected of malignant tumor, he was referred to GBUZ OOD. According to the results of the patient’s examination in a single diagnostic algorithm, assessment of the course of the tumor process according to MSCT data, with the joint activity of a radiation diagnostician and a surgeon, the option of surgical treatment by endolaryngeal resection (ELR) was chosen. To determine the resectability of the tumor process in the larynx, a detailed assessment of the tumor condition and its prevalence is necessary before surgical treatment in the form of endolaryngeal resection. MSCT makes it possible to quickly perform a study for calculating and performing minimally invasive surgery, improving oncological and functional results.
