| 摘 要： | Two hundred and sixty-seven cases of female laryngocarcinoma, treated in our hospital in the past 33 years, were analysed. It is suggested that a relating preponderance of male sex hormonal influence after menopause should be a contributing factor responsible for the high prevalemce of laryngeal cancer in women. The other etiological factor was cigarette smoking. The pathological types and patterns of metastasis to cervical lymphnodes in the female laryngocarcinoma were similar to those observed in male patients but the superglottic cancer was more common than the flottic type. However, no significant difference in prognosis was observed between superglottic and glottic cancers. Provided indications are strictly adhered to, partial laryngectomy that can give therapeutic resulrs similar or even superior to total laryngocarcinoma.
