Tumor of the larynx is still a prognostically serious disease, the second most frequent tumor of the upper aerodigestive tract, associated with high mortality. Survival rates for these tumors vary and depend on the presence of early symptoms, anatomic accessibility, and lymphoma supply. Despite advances in therapy and new surgical and non-surgical approaches, early diagnosis remains the best predictor of survival. The most common type is squamous cell carcinoma, which accounts for 85-95% of neoplasms. Most tumors that arise in the larynx begin on the surface of the mucosa and are called squamous cell tumors (SCC). Much rarer forms of laryngeal tumors are salivary gland tumors that arise from tiny salivary glands under the mucosa or tumors that arise from muscle, cartilage, or other structural tissues (sarcomas). SCC of the larynx is associated with smoking, although the contribution of passive smoking and the effect of past smoking are less certain. Some cases of laryngeal tumors occur without known risk factors. Health professionals cannot see the larynx without special equipment. The larynx can be visualized using a laryngeal mirror or a fiberoptic telescope with a video camera. The tumor usually causes changes in the appearance of the mucosa or symmetrical structures of the larynx that can be seen with these devices. It can also be detected using radiographic imaging including MRI, CT or ultrasound. When a suspicious lesion of the larynx is detected, additional testing to confirm the diagnosis is performed by taking a biopsy, taking a small tissue sample. Due to the sensitivity of the larynx, this must be done in most cases under general anesthesia in the operating room. Determining the patient's stage is crucial for the correct approach to treatment. The paper deals with the most common nursing diagnoses in postoperative care and specific approaches in the postoperative care of patients after laryngectomy, including tracheostomy toilet, endotracheal tube, voice prosthesis toilet, nasogastric tube feeding, postoperative complications after laryngectomy, etc.
