Objective: - The study aimed to assess factors that contribute to cancer of the larynx and to identify the relationship between the variables of the study with cancer of the larynx.
Methodology: - A descriptive study to assess of factors that contributes cancer of the larynx. The study was carried out in Specialized Surgical Teaching Hospital, Ibin-Al Beetar Hospital and Ibin Al Nafees Hospital for the period from January 2017to February 2018. A purposive (Non- probability) sample of (70) patients with larynx cancer was selected for the study. An assessment form was employed for purpose of the study. Test-Retest reliability was employed through computation of Pearson Correlation Coefficient (r=0.84). Content validity of the assessment was determined through a (10) panel of experts. Data were collected through the interview technique. Data were analyzed through descriptive statistical approach (frequency and percentage) and inferential statistical approach (Chi-Square).
