About Head & Neck Cancer

Head and neck cancers — encompassing oral cavity, oropharyngeal, laryngeal, hypopharyngeal, nasopharyngeal, thyroid, and salivary gland malignancies — demand extraordinary expertise to balance oncological cure with functional and aesthetic preservation. Dr. Manish Singhal's clinic offers a complete head and neck oncology programme, integrating trans-oral robotic surgery (TORS), function-preserving reconstructive techniques, IMRT radiation, and personalised systemic therapy with cisplatin, cetuximab, or pembrolizumab.

Prevention & Early Detection

Complete tobacco and smokeless tobacco cessation — single most important preventive step
HPV vaccination (Gardasil 9) — protects against the major cause of oropharyngeal cancer
Limiting alcohol consumption, especially in combination with tobacco
Betel nut / areca nut avoidance — major risk factor in South Asian populations
Regular oral self-examination and annual dental/ENT check-ups
Sun protection for lip cancer prevention
Head & Neck Cancer Treatment

Our Treatment Approach

Oral cavity cancers are managed with upfront surgery and neck dissection, followed by adjuvant chemoradiation if high-risk features are present. Oropharyngeal HPV-positive cancers — which carry an excellent prognosis — may receive de-escalated concurrent chemoradiation or TORS. Locally advanced laryngeal cancers are evaluated for organ preservation with concurrent cisplatin-based chemoradiation. Recurrent/metastatic disease receives pembrolizumab or cetuximab-based regimens.
