ABSTRACT
Angioleiomyoma is a type of benign smooth muscle tumor. It is common in uterus and the gastrointestinal tract but rare in head and neck. This neoplasm is extremely rare in the larynx as only 10 cases have been reported in the literature in the world so far. Main symptoms are hoarseness and dyspnea. The treatment of choice is complete removal with care taken to avoid profuse bleeding. The authors report one case of angioleiomyoma of the larynx that was excised surgically with CO2 laser under suspension microlaryngoscopy.
