Giant cell tumour of the larynx-a diagnostic challenge.

Giant cell tumours (GCTs) of the larynx are extremely rare. The most affected structure is the thyroid cartilage and only 44 cases are reported in the literature.1 Clinically, their first manifestation is usually a palpable neck mass, often accompanied by hoarseness, dyspnoea, and/or dysphagia depending on size and location. GCTs are benign neoplasms, yet awareness of this entity is crucial as their aggressive local behaviour can cause significant morbidity with airway obstruction and can simulate a malignancy. The differential diagnosis is broad and remains a clinical and radiological challenge. Indeed, the final diagnosis is established by histology postoperatively. Surgery is the preferred treatment but may impair voice quality. For incomplete surgical resections and high surgical risk lesions, denosumab treatment is a valuable option. We share our experience on GCTs in a young adult presenting as a supraglottic mass.
