解析:Predisposing factors for laryngeal cancer include chronic irritants such as alcohol, tobacco, and exposure to noxious fumes. About 75% of people who develop laryngeal cancer are smokers. The combination of smoking and heavy alcohol intake is even more strongly implicated as a causative agent in the laryngeal cancer.
