Abstract

We describe a case of laryngeal angioleiomyoma, discuss its characteristic features and management, and provide a review of the literature, to improve clinical diagnosis and treatment. We report the oldest patient with a laryngeal angioleiomyoma to date and analyze the clinicopathological features reported in the literature. To the best of our knowledge, a total of 36 cases have been described in the English and Chinese medical literature (including our case). The male-to-female ratio was 5:1 and the mean age was 53.89 years. The most common laryngeal site was the supraglottic region (23 cases; 63.89%), followed by the subglottic region (8 cases; 22.22%), and glottis (5 cases; 13.89%). The most common and serious intra- and postoperative complication was massive bleeding. Angioleiomyoma is a benign tumor that rarely occurs in the larynx. Biopsy of this lesion should not be performed; complete surgical resection is the best treatment. Recurrence and malignant transformation are extremely rare.
