🎙️ Episode Description: Laryngeal & Nasopharyngeal Lesions – From Hoarseness to Carcinoma

In this power-packed episode of PodBites, Aylin Nurioglu and Joudy Bunian take you on a deep dive through the larynx and nasopharynx—exploring everything from benign bumps to EBV-linked carcinomas.

Starting with a professional singer’s hoarseness and ending with a tumor hiding behind a neck mass, this episode breaks down four key lesions—reactive nodules, squamous papilloma, laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma, and nasopharyngeal carcinoma—each through real clinical cases, pathology insights, and histologic clues.

💡 Key Highlights:

✔️ Reactive nodules from vocal strain – classic in singers
✔️ Squamous papillomas – viral (HPV 6 & 11), raspberry-like growths
✔️ Laryngeal SCC – smoking-related, glottic vs supraglottic differences
✔️ Nasopharyngeal carcinoma – EBV-associated, silent but radiosensitive
✔️ Clinical pearls on diagnosis, histology, and prognosis
✔️ Rapid-fire recap + memory hooks

🎧 Whether you're reviewing ENT pathology or just curious why some hoarseness shouldn’t be ignored—this bite-sized episode is your go-to guide!
