Abstract
Laryngeal liposarcoma is an unusual tumor. Only 16 cases have been previously reported. We describe a new case of well-differentiated laryngeal liposarcoma and review the literature. The tumor was treated by surgical removal. Immunohistochemical study showed an immunophenotype consistent with liposarcoma. The case described is of the oldest patient (83 years old), the second to be found in a woman, and the second to be localized to one true vocal cord (according to the literature reviewed). The patient is still free of tumor 2 years later. The treatment and prognosis of liposarcoma of the larynx are discussed.
