Amyloidosis of the larynx is rare in the pediatric age group. We present a clinical case of laryngeal amyloidosis manifesting as false vocal fold bulging in a thirteen-year-old girl with hoarseness and with initial suspicion of laryngeal tumor. Computed tomography and ultrasound scanning of the larynx were useful in determining the laryngeal process size along with fibro laryngoscopy. There was performed a microsurgical removal of the larynx formation. The results of Congo red staining of the formation were characteristic of amyloid. Systemic manifestations of the disease were not revealed.
