Prognostic factors in brain metastases from laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma: Case report and review.
Conclusion: Brain metastases from laryngeal SCC are rare. This is the first study in which a survival analysis of these cases has been performed. Surgery and/or radio-chemotherapy increase the survival of these patients compared with untreated cases. Moreover, KPS score and RPA class affect the outcome of these patients.
