A 69-year-old patient diagnosed, in 1985, of squamous cell carcinoma of the right vocal cord (T1, N0, M0) was treated with cordectomy and radiotherapy. Eleven years later he presented with a larynx tumor of the glotto-subglottic region. Histopathological examination stated a small cells neuroendocrine tumor. We contribute with one new case to those rare laryngeal tumors, which we see often published in the specialty journals, probably due to the wide employed immunohistochemistry dyes.
