Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the awareness of individuals who applied to the ENT outpatient clinic on laryngeal cancer. Patients and Method: The study is a questionnaire study consisting of 19 questions. The first 5 questions of the survey are descriptive questions. In these questions, the age, gender, education level, smoking habits and alcohol use of the individuals who participated in the questionnaire were questioned, and the etiology, symptoms, treatment and post-treatment morbidities of laryngeal cancer were questioned in the remaining 14 questions. The 200 individuals included in the study were divided into two groups as 40 years old and younger, over 40 years old according to the age range, and into three groups as primary, high school and university according to their education level. The answers given by the individuals were compared statistically according to the groups in which they were included. Results: 35% of all individuals participating in the questionnaire actively consumed cigarettes and 27% actively consumed alcohol. While smoking rates were similar between groups, alcohol consumption was higher among university graduates (p = 0.02). 35% of all individuals considered hoarseness as the most common symptom of laryngeal cancer. Chemotherapy response was given in the first place as the most effective treatment. 33% of all individuals thought that someone who received treatment for laryngeal cancer could recover fully. 38% of individuals aged 40 and under and 59% of individuals over 40 thought that full recovery could occur (p = 0.004). Conclusion: Participants answered the questions about the etiology and symptoms of laryngeal cancer with a high rate of correct answers, while they answered the questions about treatment options and post-treatment morbidities with a lower rate

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı KBB hastalıkları polikliniğine başvuran bireylerin larinks kanseri üzerine olan farkındalığını değerlendirmektir. Hastalar ve Yöntem: Çalışma 19 sorudan oluşan bir anket çalışmasıdır. Anketin ilk 5 sorusu tanımlayıcı sorulardır. Bu sorularda ankete katılan bireylerin yaşı, cinsiyeti, eğitim düzeyi, sigara içme alışkanlıkları ve alkol kullanımları sorgulandı, geri kalan 14 soruda ise larinks kanserinin etiyolojisi, belirtileri, tedavisi ve tedavi sonrası oluşan morbiditeler sorgulandı. Çalışmaya dahil edilen 200 birey yaş aralığına göre 40 yaş ve altı, 40 yaş üstü olarak iki gruba, eğitim düzeyine göre ilköğretim, lise ve üniversite olacak şekilde üç gruba ayrıldı. Bireylerin verdiği cevaplar dahil oldukları gruplara göre istatistiksel olarak karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Ankete katılan tüm bireylerin %35’i sigarayı, %27’si alkolü aktif olarak tüketiyordu. Sigara içme oranları gruplar arasında benzerken, alkol tüketiminin üniversite mezunları arasında daha fazlaydı (p=0.02). Tüm bireylerin %35’i ses kısıklığını larinks kanserinin en sık görülen semptomu olarak düşündü. En etkin tedavi olarak ilk sırada kemoterapi cevabı verildi. Tüm bireylerin %33’ü larinks kanseri nedeniyle tedavi alan birinin tam olarak iyileşebileceğini düşünüyordu. 40 yaş ve altı bireylerin %38’i 40 yaş üstü bireylerin ise %59’u tam iyileşmenin olabileceğini düşünüyordu (p=0.004). Sonuç: Katılımcılar larenks kanseri etyolojisi ve semptomları hakkındaki sorulara yüksek oranda doğru cevap verirken, tedavi seçenekleri ve tedavi sonrası morbiditeler ile ilgili sorulara daha düşük oranda doğru cevap vermişlerdir.
