The relationship between the duration of hoarseness and tumor growth was studied in 240 cases of laryngeal carcinoma (glottis carcinoma, 159; supraglottic carcinoma, 81) treated in Gunma Cancer Center. Patients over 70 years of age account for 39.0% of this series are treated less vigorously. Of the cases suffering from glottic carcinoma 56.6% were T1 when they were examined within three months of the onset of hoarseness. However, early detection of glottic carcinoma depends on the nature of the tumor itself, and many patients with T1 carcinoma did not visit their doctors for a long time after they first noted hoarseness. On the other hand, many patients have advanced carcinoma in spite of earlier consultation.
