ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Myxomas are benign tumors of mesenchymal origin that rarely occur in the larynx.

CASE SUMMARY: We report a case of a laryngeal myxoma that presented as a right vocal cord mass in a 54-year-old man.

CONCLUSION: Laryngeal myxoma is a rare benign tumor in the larynx. It is difficult to distinguish glottis myxoma from vocal cord polyps on laryngoscopy. We recommend that otolaryngologists acquire a better understanding of this disease. If a laryngeal myxoma is suspected, dynamic laryngoscopy, acoustic voice analysis, and pathological biopsy should be performed.
