Abstract: | Giant cell tumors are benign tumors commonly found in the long bones. Rarely, they may occur in the larynx, and patients with such tumors may present with hoarseness and anterior neck swelling. Since Wessely reported the first case of laryngeal giant cell tumor in 1940, 30 cases have been identified. Herein, we present a case of a 31-year-old man with giant cell tumor of the larynx successfully treated via the hemilaryngectomy approach. |
