Abstract
|
|
|
|
Neurofibroma in the larynx is a rare disease. A case of solitary endolaryngeal neurofibroma was reported first by Suchanek in 1925. As the report, the commonly occured site is the aryepiglottic fold or the arytenoid cartilage, because the branch of the superior laryngeal nerve is involved. We present a case of incidently detected neurofibroma in arytenoid cartilage. The 68 year-old male with solitary neurofibroma in the arytenoid cartilage, had no laryngeal symptoms such as throat discomfort, globus sensation, and dyspnea. We present the case of solitary neurofibroma of the arytenoid cartilage.
