| Popis: | AbstractLaryngeal hemangiomas are benign tumors and are categorized into two types—infantile and adult. Adult-type vocal cord hemangiomas are very rare and uncommon in clinical practice. A 71-year-old man came to medical attention because of blood-tinged sputum and hoarseness for 1-month duration. Endoscopic examination revealed a well-demarcated vegetative lesion attached to the right vocal cord. The lesion was superficially located, and therefore amenable to complete surgical excision. Post-operation followed up showed improved symptoms and without evidence of local recurrence. Based on the histopathological features, a diagnosis of cavernous hemangioma of the vocal cord was rendered. Currently, there is no clear and unequivocal treatment and management modality in adult-type hemangioma, we reported a case with adult-type laryngeal hemangioma using cold instrument microlaryngoscopic excision technique with satisfied result. |
