Only 0.3-1% of laryngeal cancer are non-squamous cell neoplasms. Of these, a rare entity is inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour (IMT), in which anaplastic lymphoma kinase-1 (ALK-1) is frequently expressed. Just 50 cases of IMT have been reported. Therefore, many otolaryngologists may be unfamiliar with this type of tumour and be prone to its over- or undertreatment.We report a case of ALK-1-negative IMT treated with transoral endoscopic excision and disease-free 6 months after surgery.
仅0.3%-1%的喉癌是非鳞状细胞肿瘤。其中,一种罕见的实体是炎性肌纤维母细胞瘤(IMT),间变性淋巴瘤激酶-1(ALK-1)在该肿瘤中经常表达。仅报告了50例IMT病例。因此,许多耳鼻喉科医生可能不熟悉这种类型的肿瘤,容易对其过度治疗或治疗不足。我们报告1例经口内镜切除治疗的ALK-1阴性IMT病例,术后6个月无疾病复发。
