In searching for a screening procedure in the diagnosis of laryngeal malignancy the authors have evaluated a cytological examination, adapted for indirect laryngoscopy, and present the results of 149 consecutive smears from the larynx. Forty-four per cent of the smears were false negative, and it is concluded that exfoliative cytology with this method has no place as a screening procedure in the diagnosis of laryngeal malignancy. The method is inferior to the evaluation of the clinical picture in indirect laryngoscopy, and the selection for direct laryngoscopy and biopsy for histological evaluation should be based upon the clinical evaluation.
在寻找喉恶性肿瘤诊断的筛查方法时，作者评估了一种适用于间接喉镜检查的细胞学检查，并展示了149例连续喉部涂片的结果。44%的涂片为假阴性，得出的结论是，用这种方法进行的脱落细胞学检查在喉恶性肿瘤诊断中没有作为筛查方法的价值。该方法不如间接喉镜检查中对临床表现的评估，直接喉镜检查和组织学评估活检的选择应基于临床评估。
