ABSTRACT
Myxomas are benign mesenchymal tumors that occur rarely in the head and neck. When they occur in the head and neck region, they mainly involve facial bones such as mandible and maxilla. Myxomas arising from subcutaneous soft tissues, including the larynx, are very rare. There are only sporadic cases of laryngeal myxomas reported in English literature. Within the larynx, the vocal folds, aryepiglottic fold, and epiglottis are the reported sites of involvement. The most common clinical presentation is hoarsness and difficulty in breathing. We described two cases of laryngeal myxomas in a 62-year-old male and a 52-year-old male.
