primary non-hodgkin lymphoma of the larynx is rare, accounting for less than 1% of all laryngeal neoplasms. fewer than 100 cases have been reported in the literatureand to our knowledge this may be the first reported case of laryngeal non hodgkin lymphoma presented with hoarseness, aortic aneurysm, hepatitis b and skin rashes.

mucoepidermoid carcinoma is a neoplasm of salivary gland origin, and its laryngeal occurrence is extremely rare. this malignant tumor is composed of two distinct cell types, the epidermoid and mucus cells. prognosis is largely dependent on the histologic pattern. in this report, an extremely rare laryngeal cancer and its clinicopathologic features are described.

This case describes the development of laryngeal chondronecrosis after use of the laryngeal mask airway (LMA). A 69-year-old male with prior laryngeal irradiation underwent total knee replacement with general anesthesia via LMA. Postoperatively, he developed laryngeal chondronecrosis, bilateral vocal fold immobility, and aspiration, necessitating tracheostomy and gastrostomy placement. He impro...

CE Dysfunction of the recurrent laryngeal nerves causes laryngeal paralysis in dogs and cats. Paralysis of the cricoarytenoideus dorsalis muscle results in an inability to abduct the arytenoid cartilages during inspiration.The resulting cross-sectional area of the glottis is inadequate for normal respiration.The most common clinical signs of laryngeal paralysis in dogs and cats are stridor, exe...

OBJECTIVE To estimate the prevalence of laryngeal paresis within a selected population of dogs and identify some of the distinguishing characteristics of affected dogs. DESIGN A prospective study involving laryngoscopic examination of 250 dogs. PROCEDURE The laryngeal movements of 250 dogs undergoing general anaesthesia were observed. The severity of laryngeal paresis in these dogs was grad...

The central proposal in this paper is that laryngeal cooccurrence restrictions are restrictions on contrasts between forms in a language, not restrictions on isolated forms or structures. Combinations of laryngeal features are only marked with respect to what other combinations of laryngeal features they contrast with. The analysis hinges on the hypothesis that the two types of laryngeal contra...

We describe a case of non-tuberculous mycobacterial infection of the larynx in a previously well, immunocompetent young woman. Laryngeal mycobacterial infection is rare and currently accounts for less than 1% of all cases. A diagnostic dilemma often occurs because it may mimic laryngeal carcinoma, chronic laryngitis, or laryngeal candidiasis. This case highlights the importance of considering n...

In developing countries like Indonesia, pulmonary tuberculosis still ranks among the major health problems and the prevalence of laryngeal tuberculosis are therefore still high. It is important for physicians and otolaryngologist to recognize the cardinal sign and symptoms of laryngeal tuberculosis in order to make an early diagnosis. An illustration of four cases with laryngeal tuberculosis is...

Recurrent laryngeal nerve injury can develop following cervical or thoracic surgery; however, few reports have described intraoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring. Consensus regarding the use of this technique during thoracic surgery is lacking. We used intraoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring in a patient with contralateral vocal cord paralysis who was scheduled for comple...

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or its variation known as laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), has been recognized as a potential cause of several laryngeal disorders. Patients with laryngeal cancer have lifestyle risk factors, especially tobacco and alcohol consumption, that play an etiological role in the development of their cancer but also places them at risk for reflux. The question the...
