Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1998
Malignant mesenchymal tumors of the larynx constitute 0.3% to 1% of all laryngeal cancers, and of these osteosarcoma is the rarest. Our review of the literature identified only 12 cases of osteosarcoma of the larynx, all of which occurred in men. Rarely, osteosarcoma of the larynx may follow radiation therapy for squamous cell carcinoma, or the larynx ...

Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 1998
The complex anatomy of the larynx, best conceptualized as a set of mucosal folds draped over a cartilaginous skeleton, has developed as a consequence of its many upper airway functions. Despite its deep location in the neck, much of the mucosal surface of the larynx is amenable to direct laryngoscopic inspection.

Critical Reviews in Oncology/Hematology, 2003
In Europe, laryngeal cancer accounts for only 2-5% of all cancers, the incidence being much higher among males than among females. Smoke and alcohol represent the major behavioural risk factors. Several carcinogens, occupations and vitamin deficiencies have been associated with laryngeal cancer.

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 1982
AbstractChondroma of the larynx is rare, but should be suspected in elderly patients with persistent voice changes or recurrent colds when carcinoma has been disproved. We report a patient with chondroma of the larynx. The diagnosis was established following complications associated with anesthesia for an unrelated ailment.

Tumori Journal, 2003
Leiomyosarcoma involving the larynx is extremely rare and may be difficult to diagnose. Because of the rarity of this tumor, little information exists on its long-term follow-up and optimal management. We present a review of the literature and report on a patient with leiomyosarcoma of the larynx treated with surgery and postoperative irradiation.

Stenosis of the Larynx in Infancy Haemangioma of the Larynx
Acta Paediatrica, 1953SummaryA 3‐months‐old girl suffered from difficulty in inspiration from birth. Attacks of dyspnoea set in gradually with stridor, cyanosis and loss of consciousness. There were repeated remissions. Direct laryngoscopy revealed a bluish‐black swelling in the region of the subglottis, and a post‐mortem examination showed a haemangioma in the larynx with ...

The British Journal of Radiology, 1953
Negus (1949) described the larynges of many species of animals and endeavoured to correlate the peculiarities of structure with their particular habits. His studies seemed to indicate that the larynx of all animals is primarily a sphincteric mechanism designed to prevent the entry of water or other harmful substance into the lungs, and to regulate the ...
