Hypopharyngeal lipomatous hamartoma in piriform fossa: A case report and review of literature
Most hypopharyngeal disease presentations involve tumours or growths of various cellular origin. These lesions may include choristomas, hamartomas, hyperplasia, and harmless or dangerous neoplasms. A hamartoma is a benign focal malformation of tissue at the site of origin that lacks specific disting...

description | Most hypopharyngeal disease presentations involve tumours or growths of various cellular origin. These lesions may include choristomas, hamartomas, hyperplasia, and harmless or dangerous neoplasms. A hamartoma is a benign focal malformation of tissue at the site of origin that lacks specific distinguishing features and is often designated as a neoplasm without consideration of pathology or biological behaviour. Here, we discuss the case of a 56-year-old man who presented with gradual dysphagia for 4 months along with sleep apnoea and voice changes. No palpable neck masses or abnormal lymphadenopathy was found. A left-sided homogeneous cyst-like mass was seen in the piriform fossa on laryngoscopy. The vocal cords were visualized and mobile. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan showed the obliteration of the piriform sinus on the left side by a faintly enhanced heterogeneous soft tissue lesion. The lesion originated from the left aryepiglottic fold, and was approached via micro-laryngoscopy and excised. Histopathological analysis led to a diagnosis of lipomatous hamartoma. |
