Subclassification by site
It is generally divided the following way:[1]
| Laryngeal cancer | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Supraglottis | Glottis | Subglottis | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
- Prevalence - glottis > supraglottis > subglottis.
- Glottic carcinoma tends to present earlier (as it affects phonation) and, therefore, has a better prognosis.
