Abstract

Neurogenic tumours of the larynx are unusual, with approximately 115 cases reported in the literature to date. Most of these lesions are benign, solitary submucosal nodules which present with hoarseness and are amenable to surgical resection. We present a case of a large pedunculated schwannoma arising in the aryepiglottic fold associated with sudden asphyxial death in an otherwise healthy young female.

摘要

喉神经源性肿瘤较为罕见，迄今为止文献报道约115例。这些病变大多为良性，是孤立的黏膜下结节，表现为声音嘶哑，可通过手术切除。我们报告一例发生于杓会厌襞的带蒂大神经鞘瘤病例，该病例发生于一名原本健康的年轻女性，伴有突然窒息死亡。
