  • Title: [Non-Hodgkin lymphomas of the larynx. Apropos of a case].

    Abstract:
    In connection with a recent observation of laryngeal lymphoma, we have looked through the literature and listed 79 cases. Preferentially, these are male subjects over fifty years of age. The symptoms are slowly progressive dyspnea and unilateral otalgia. Laryngoscopy shows a smooth-surfaced tumour, regular in shape and pinkish grey in colour, generally localized at the supra-glottic level. Therapeutic strategy is closely linked with histologic investigation and the stages of progression. Treatment is based on radiotherapy to the affected area, associated with chemotherapy in the case of extralaryngeal lymphomatous involvement. While prognosis remains good in the case of an isolated laryngeal attack, it is less so in the case of multiple localization.
