Abstract

A large laryngeal hemangioma was found in a 45-year-old male complaining of abnormal sensation in the larynx. The tumor had a wide pedicle from the left arytenoid and the aryepiglottic fold, and was about 30mm in diameter. From laryngoscopic findings and CT scan, hypervascularity of the tumor was suggested. The tumor was resected by YAG laser under laryngomicroscope. Histological examination revealed cavernous hemangioma. The hemangioma has not reccurred for 6 months following surgery.
