Evaluation and Management of an Uncommon Tumor of the Larynx: A Case Report and Literature Review of Laryngeal Low-Grade Myofibroblastic Sarcoma.

Low-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma (LGMS) of the larynx is an uncommon entity. These mesenchymal tumors of the larynx are rare and account for approximately 0.3% to 1.0% of all neoplasms at this site. We report a rare case of LGMS of the larynx that involved the larynx of a 63-year-old man with a history of hoarseness of voice. The patient was treated with total laryngectomy with partial pharyngectomy without any adjuvant treatment. Histopathologically, the tumor was composed of spindle cells that manifested variable cellular anaplasia and expressed smooth muscle actin (SMA). Our patient is disease-free two years after surgery. The authors emphasize the clinical and histopathological findings and treatment of this case with a literature review. This case is among the few reported cases of LGMS of the larynx. It enlightens the classical clinical findings, histopathology, differential diagnosis, and treatment. Surgical excision with negative margins requires no adjuvant therapy.
