Abstract :
Pharyngeal cancer is cancer of the head and neck region. It is divided into three parts the nasopharynx, oropharynx and hypopharynx. Smoking and alcohol act synergistically in the development of carcinoma pharynx. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinico–pathological parameters in patients with carcinoma pharynx and to compare clinico–pathological parameters between patients aged less than and more than 40 years age. Majority of patients had smoke tobacco, smokeless tobacco and alcohol consumption in both age groups with no statistical difference. Involvement of oropharynx, hypopharynx was more commonly seen in > 40 years age group, whereas, cancer nasopharynx was more common in < 40 years age group with no statistical difference in involvement of three parts of pharynx was seen between the two age groups.
