the thyroid/cricoid cartilage, hyoid bone, thyroid gland, or central compartment soft
tissue. Central compartment soft tissue includes prelaryngeal strap muscles and subcutaneous
fat. T1: Tumor limited to one subsite of hypopharynx and/or 2 cm or less in greatest
dimension. T2: Tumor invades more than one subsite of the hypopharynx or an adjacent
site, or measures more than 2 cm but not more than 4 cm in greatest diameter without
fixation of hemilarynx. T3: Tumor measuring more than 4 cm in greatest dimension or
tumor with fixation of hemilarynx or extension to esophagus. N0: No regional lymph
node metastasis. N1: Metastasis in a single ipsilateral lymph node, 3 cm or less in
greatest dimension. N2: Tumor with metastasis in a single ipsilateral lymph node,
more than 3 cm but not more than 6 cm in greatest dimension, or in multiple ipsilateral
lymph nodes, none more than 6 cm in greatest dimension, or in bilateral or contralateral
