Background:
Primary malignant lymphomas (PHML) of the larynx are exceptional.
Case: A 43-year-old man presented with dysphonia and pulmonary aspiration. The physical examination found bilateral cervical lymph nodes and the pan endoscopy revealed a bleeding budding tumor of the epiglottis. The head and neck scan showed a mass arising from the epiglottis and invading the vallecules, the right aryepiglottic fold, the two vocal cords and the anterior commissure with bilateral cervical lymph nodes.
The patient inderwent a chemotherapy, followed by an irradiation of the involved nodal fields and the initial laryngeal tumor. At a follow-up time of 3.5 years, the patient remains in disease complete remission.
