Recurrent chondrosarcoma of the larynx: A case report and literature review
BACKGROUND: Laryngeal chondrosarcoma (LCS) is a rare laryngeal tumor that most commonly originates from the cricoid cartilage. The current trend for treatment of low-grade LCS is function-sparing surgical option with negative margins. CASE SUMMARY: We reported here a case of a 63-year-old male patie...

description | BACKGROUND: Laryngeal chondrosarcoma (LCS) is a rare laryngeal tumor that most commonly originates from the cricoid cartilage. The current trend for treatment of low-grade LCS is function-sparing surgical option with negative margins. CASE SUMMARY: We reported here a case of a 63-year-old male patient with a 3-month history of progressive hoarseness and throat pain. The patient had undergone surgical resection of a laryngeal mass 2 years prior. A supracricoid partial laryngectomy was performed this time. Histological examination supported the diagnosis of low-grade chondrosarcoma. Three years later, the radiological and clinical findings showed no evidence of recurrence. CONCLUSION: Currently, total laryngectomy is preferred for patients with recurrent low-grade LCS. However, the literature review and our case suggest that a second function-preserving procedure may be a reasonable choice for recurrent LCS. |
