    Abstract:
    Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the larynx is rare. Only 7 cases have been treated in our hospital from 1959 to 1986, which comprised 0.7% of all laryngeal malignancies in the same period. Of the 7 cases, there were 5 males and 2 females with the average age of 47. The symptoms at the time of diagnosis varied according to the size and location of the tumor. Three lesions were considered as supraglottic and one as subglottic. Six cases were treated by surgery and one by radiotherapy alone. The most common site of distant metastasis was the lung. The average survival was long even in those with pulmonary metastasis.
