Notes

**Note 1**: Impaired vocal cord mobility may be described as vocal cord paresis, and may suggest invasion of intrinsic laryngeal muscle. Fixation of the vocal cord may be described as immobility of the arytenoids noted on endoscopy, paralysis of the vocal cords, or deviation of larynx to the fixed side. **Note 2**: Use code 450 for localized tumor only if no information is available to assign codes 100 through 400. **Note 3**: Use code 685, 735, 810, or 815 if the physician's assignment of T category is the only information available about the extent of the tumor.
