Abstract
Chondrosarcoma of the larynx: a case presentation. The chondrosarcoma of the larynx is an exceptionally rare tumour. It appears mainly in white men in their 7th decade. The most significant clinical manifestation is hoarseness accompanied at times by stridor. It involves mainly the cricoid cartilage and the treatment of choice is surgical excision. A case of a large tumour of the cricoid cartilage is described. The diagnostic work-up consisted of two minor operations for biopsies and an MRI scan prior to the patient being treated with total laryngectomy.
