  • Title: Rhabdomyosarcoma of the larynx.
    Author: Hall-Jones J.
    Journal: J Laryngol Otol; 1975 Sep; 89(9):969-76. PubMed ID: 1176829.
    Abstract:
    A case of rhabdomyosarcoma of the larynx in a 54-year-old man is reported. Patient presented dramatically with a large tumour mass obstructing his laryngeal inlet. The patient remains alive and well sixteen months after a total laryngectomy. Only seven previous reports of a rhabdomyosarcoma of the larynx could be found in the literature and these are compared with the case reported. It would seem that a rhabdomyosarcoma of the larynx has a better prognosis than elsewhere in the body, probably because of its earlier recognition and accessibility to radical surgery.
