A case of trichinosis of the laryngeal muscles which was discovered accidentally during total laryngectomy for cancer of the larynx is presented. Trichinosis is a rare parasitic disease, particularly for the ENT specialist. It is difficult to identify during life. No specific treatment is available. In our case it is suggested that the chronic irritation of the larynx may have resulted in the growth of the cancer.
