WHAT IS THE EMBRYONIC ORIGIN OF THE GLOTTIS AND SUBGLOTTIS
SIXTHBRANCIAL ARCH
THE SUPERIOR AND INFERIOR EXTENT OF THE GLOTTIS
MIDPORTION OF THE VESTIBULE AND 1CM INFERIOR TO THAT
IN GENERAL, THE SUGGESTED TREATMENT MODALITY FOR EARLY GLOTTIC CANCER
SINGLE MODALITY (RT OR SURGERY)
THE STRUCTURES PRESERVED IN SUPRACRICOID PARTIAL LARYGECTOMY
ONE ARYTENOID, HYOID AND CRICOID
THIS IS PROCEDURE WHERE IN THE HYOID AND THE TONGUE BASE IS TIGHTLY APPOSED TO THE CRICOID AFTER SCPL
CRICOHYOIDOPEXY
THE SINGLE GREATEST RISK FACTOR FOR HEAD AND NECK SCC
PRIOR HEAD AND NECK SCC
THE STANDARD NON-SURGICAL ORGAN-PRESERVATION PROTOCOL
CCRT
THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT PREDICTOR OF PROGNOSIS FOR LARYNGEAL CA
CLINICAL STAGE
TRUE OR FALSE:
PRESENCE OF NODAL METASTASIS IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN T STAGE IN PREDICTING SURVIVAL
TRUE
TRUE OR FALSE:
ADJUVANT THERAPY IS WARRANTED IN T3 TUMORS WITHOUT ADVERSE FEATURES AND NEGATIVE FOR NODAL METASTASIS
FALSE
WHAT IS THE MAJOR DISADVANTAGE OF SCPL
POOR VOICE QUALITY
THE TWO MOST COMMON TREATMENT MODALITIES IN EARLY SUPRAGLOTTIC CA
SGPL AND RT
WHAT NEW CHEMOTHERAPEUTIC AGENT CAN BE USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH RT FOR PATIENTS WITH T4 TUMORS AND UNWILLING TO UNDERGO TOTAL LARYGNECTOMY
CETUXIMAB
THIS CONSERVATION LARYNGEAL SURGERY REMOVES THE IPSILATERAL TRUE AND FALSE VOCAL FOLDS AND EXTEND LATERALLY TO THE PERICHONDRIUM OF THE THYROID CARTILAGE
VERTICAL HEMILARYNGECTOMY
TRUE OR FALSE:
CT HAS HIGHER PREDICTIVE VALUE IN DETECTING CARTILAGE INVASION THAN MRI
FALSE
THE MOST COMMON SITE OF DISTANT HEMATOGENOUS METASTSIS
LUNG
THIS CAN BE MISTAKEN AS SCC, WHEREIN THERE IS ELONGATION OF THE RETE EDGES OF THE EPITHELIUM BUT DOES NOT SHOW CYTOLOGIC EVIDENCE OF MALIGNANCY
PSEUDOEPITHELIOMATOUS HYPERPLASIA
RESULTS FROM INFARCTION OF SALIVARY TISSUE IN THE LARYNX
NECROTIZING SIALOMETAPLASIA
THE SECOND MOST COMMON UPPER AERODIGESTIVE TRACT MALIGNANCY
LARYGNEAL SCCA
TRUE OR FALSE:
ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION IS MORE IMPORTANT RISK FACTOR IN GLOTTIC SCCA
FALSE
A PREMALIGNANT LESION WHICH SHOWS CYTOLOGIC FEATURES OF MALIGNANCY BUT DOES NOT INVADE THE BASEMENT MEMBRANE
CIS
TRUE OR FALSE:
TUMORS CROSSING THE ANTERIOR COMMISSURE DETERMINES DEEP TISSUE INVASION
FALSE
