Abstrakt: Mass lesions of the larynx are one of the most common clinical entity which we come across in routine otorhinolaryngology and head neck practice with varied symptomatology. Among all the mass lesions of the larynx, Epithelial neoplasms constitute up to 97%. Mesenchymal tumours of the larynx constitute only 0.3–1.0% of all the laryngeal tumors. Abundance of cartilage structures in the larynx made it a spot for mesenchymal tumors [chondromas and chandrosacrcomas]. The spectrum of mesenchymal neoplasms can vary from chondromas, chondroblastoma to chondrosarcoma. Here we want to share our experience of a mesenchymal tumour of the larynx. This case is reported for the rarity and ambiguity in diagnosis. Though these are slow-growing tumours with an early presentation, in our case, the patient had a supportive tracheostomy without definitive treatment for more than 2 years. We managed this patient by excising the mass by lateral pharyngotomy with the preservation of larynx followed by successful Decannulation in 20 days. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
