Indian clinical practice consensus guidelines for the management of locoregional laryngeal cancer – Update 2024
ABSTRACT Laryngeal cancer typically presents at an early stage, and most patients are treated with curative intent. Due to the functional and cosmetic morbidities associated with surgical approaches, nonsurgical modalities are increasingly favored. This update to the guidelines emphasizes a multidisciplinary approach tailored to the Indian healthcare context, enhancing treatment strategies and optimizing patient outcomes. Key recommendations include the use of concurrent chemoradiotherapy and induction chemotherapy regimens, with a focus on the organ preservation whenever feasible.
