does anyone know of any good sites on basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx?  my husband has stage 4 with a m word that i dont know how to spell but it means it has spread to both lungs.   im having a problem finding info on this particular cancer.  all help is appreciated!!!!

I think it's spelled metastasise, meaning it's spread from the original site, as in, "It's metastasized throughout the patient's body".

Put the word into Google and search, that'll bring up some interesting hits (careful with the spelling), and try both with an s and a z (not sure if Americans spell it with a z), and try the past participle too (as in the sentence above, in quotes). You don't want to limit your search unnecessarily.

I hope he recovers. Good luck!

The cancer Bacup site is excellent for finding out about all types of cancer. If you're in the UK there's a freephone helpline.
