“…2 There is evidence however, that the incidence of laryngeal cancer among women in Europe is increasing. One study in France reported a 67% rise in incidence between 1980 and 2005, 35 while another in Spain predicted that by 2017, incidence would increase by 37%. 36 Whilst this could be due to a combination of factors including an aging population, improved detection of tumours, or improved access to healthcare, the authors relate such trends in women to an increase in exposure to risk factors, specifically smoking.…”

Objectives Laryngeal cancer in men is a relatively common malignancy, with a marked socioeconomic gradient in survival between affluent and deprived patients. Cancer of the larynx in women is rare. Survival tends to lower than for men, and little is known about the association between deprivation and survival in women with laryngeal cancer. This paper explores the trends and socio-economic inequalities in laryngeal cancer survival in women, with comparison to men. Materials and MethodsWe examined relative survival among men and women diagnosed with laryngeal cancer in England and Wales during 1991-2006, followed up to 31 December 2007. We estimated the difference in survival between the most deprived and most affluent groups (the 'deprivation gap') at 1 and 5 years after diagnosis, for each sex, anatomical subsite and calendar period. ResultsFive year survival for all laryngeal cancers combined was up to 8% lower in women than in men. This difference is only partially explained by the differential distribution of anatomical subsites in men and women. Disparities in survival between men and women were also present within specific subsites. In contrast to men, there was little evidence of a consistent deprivation gap in survival for women at any of the anatomical subsites. ConclusionThe stark socioeconomic inequalities in laryngeal cancer survival in men do not appear to be replicated in women. The origins of the socio-economic inequalities in survival among men, and the disparities in survival between men and women at specific tumour subsites remains unclear.246 words

“…However, a wide variation in the rates for this tumour was described with regard to diVerent areas within the same state, in various European countries (Hakulinen et al 2010;La Vecchia et al 1997;Ligier et al 2011;O'Sullivan 2008;Warnakulasuriya 2010). These variations have also been observed with other tumours (Hassler et al 2008;Schmassmann et al 2009).…”

Detailed population-based results described important variations with regard to tumour sites, stages and areas. These data play a central role as they provide the epidemiological profile of a tumour. This profile, together with possible targeted knowledge evaluations of the public and the health care providers involved, can be used as a prerequisite for health care activities and for the development of preventive strategies for targeted public awareness campaigns.

“…This is a very large decrease, but current consumption remains high compared with the US consumption of 9 l. Although, the decrease in alcohol consumption in France was observed for both sexes in our study, the decrease is greater in men because the starting level was much higher. This decreasing trend in France is due mainly to a reduction in wine consumption [36,37]. Occupational exposure (asbestos for example) and insufficient intake of fruit and vegetables are other risk factors for LOCP cancers [38].…”
