Risk Factors of Larynx Cancer
Keywords:
Laryngeal neoplasms/epidemiology, Risk factors.Abstract
Introduction: laryngeal carcinoma represents a health problem. The risk of laryngeal cancer in Cuba is high when compared with other countries of the region.
Objective: to determine the characteristics and risk factors of laryngeal cancer in hospitalized patients.
Material and method: a descriptive, cross sectional and retrospective study was conducted with a total target group of 95 inpatients having the diagnosis of laryngeal cancer at Abel Santamaria Cuadrado university hospital, and at Pepe Portilla pediatric provincial hospital, Pinar del Río. Theoretical, empirical and statistical methods (absolute and relative frequencies) were used taking an arithmetical instrument to record the data from the clinical charts. Pinar del Río, Consolación del Sur and Guane municipalities showed the most increased percentages. Transglottic was the topographic region most affected followed by supraglottic with the same percentage.
Results: male sex in the 8th decade of life had the highest percentage. Smoking prevailed among the toxic habits and the greatest percentage of patients did not intake alcoholic beverages. High blood pressure was the most concomitant disease.
Conclusions: smoking addition continues as the most relevant risk factor.
