Popis: |
In this case report, a 78-year-old man presented with dyspnoea, globus sensation and haemoptysis. CT scan and fibre-optic laryngoscopy revealed a 2 × 3 cm tumour on the laryngeal surface of the epiglottis. The tumour was surgically removed by direct laryngoscopy and debulking. Histology showed a pyogenic granuloma with large amounts of yeasts and bacteria. Six months later the tumour recurred. Treatment with fluconazole and removal with CO2 laser was effective. After a year and a half there were no signs of recurrence. |
