Abstract
|
|
|
Neurilemmoma is a benign tumor which may develop from the nerve sheath of the cranial, sympathetic, and peripheral nerves. This tumor is characteristically solitary and well-capsulated. About 25% of this tumor occurs in the head and neck region
and
the
acoustic nerve is most frequently involved, but neurilemmoma of the larynx is rare. Recently, authors experienced a case of neurilemmoma occured in the paraglottic space of the larynx. The tumor was successfully removed through lateral thyrotomy
approach. So we report this case with literature review.
