Malignant Fibrous Histiocytoma of the Larynx; A Case Report.

1997 
Primary malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) of the larynx is extremely rare. We describe a case of a 61-year-old man with a malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the larynx who complained of hoarseness. The tumor was a red smooth mass on the right true vocal cord, which was approximately 0.5cm in diameter. Histologic examination revealed MFH. A fronto-lateral vertical partial laryngectomy was performed, and chemotherapy was given post-operatively. There has been no recurrence during the 3 years and 6 months since surgery.
