Abstract
Granular cell tumors are benign subcutaneous or submucosal lesions of neurogenic origin. In this case study one patient was diagnosed and treated successfully with complete surgical resection of a laryngeal granular cell tumor that was originated from the left arytenoid region that very rare location. There is no evidence of recurrence 2 years after surgery. Granular cell tumors should be considered in the differential diagnosis of laryngeal masses, particularly in the posterior glottis.
Highlights
Granular cell tumors (GCTs) are relatively uncommon benign laryngeal lesions thought to originate from schwann cells
We presented a patient with laryngeal GCT originated from the left arytenoid region which was very rare location, under review of the literature
A 38-year-old male patient was admitted to our clinic complaining of worsening hoarseness, non-productive cough and foreign body sensation in the throat
