Popis: Chondromas are among the rare connective-tissue tumors of the larynx. 1 Gatewood, 2 in 1942, reported two cases of this laryngeal tumor and brought the literature up to date with a total of 83. Since then several other cases have been published. Ryan and Zizmor 3 reported another in 1949, which demonstrated an additional roentgenographic technique for detecting these tumors. Link, 4 in 1949, augmented the total of reported cases of this tumor to 88. The purpose of this paper is to add to the literature an unusual case in which a recurrence appeared 28 years after the original removal.
