Chondromas and chondrosarcomas of the larynx are rare cartilaginous tumors making up less than 1% of all laryngeal tumors. Patients typically present with symptoms of hoarseness, dysphagia, or dyspnea. The most common location in the larynx for these tumors is the cricoid cartilage. Radiographically, these lesions are typically hypodense, well-circumscribed masses containing mottled calcifications with smooth walls centered within the cartilage.
We present 6 cases of chondroid tumors of the larynx.
One patient had a chondroma, 4 patients had low-grade chondrosarcomas, and 1 patient had an intermediate-grade chondrosarcoma. Two partial laryngeal resections and 4 total laryngectomies were performed.
In most cases of chondroma or chondrosarcoma of the larynx, conservative surgery should be attempted, but total laryngectomy may be required for large or recurrent lesions.
喉软骨瘤和软骨肉瘤是罕见的软骨肿瘤，占所有喉肿瘤的比例不到1%。患者通常表现为声音嘶哑、吞咽困难或呼吸困难等症状。这些肿瘤在喉内最常见的部位是环状软骨。在影像学上，这些病变通常为低密度、边界清晰的肿块，含有斑驳的钙化，壁光滑，位于软骨内。
我们报告6例喉软骨样肿瘤病例。
1例为软骨瘤，4例为低级别软骨肉瘤，1例为中级别软骨肉瘤。实施了2例部分喉切除术和4例全喉切除术。
在大多数喉软骨瘤或软骨肉瘤病例中，应尝试进行保守手术，但对于较大或复发性病变可能需要行全喉切除术。
