ABSTRACT

Hemangiomas are benign tumors of vascular origin commonly affecting head and neck region. Laryngeal Hemangiomas are however rare and have no well-defined management protocols. We present an interesting case of a 42-year-old adult who was diagnosed as a case of Laryngeal Hemangioma based on clinical and radiological findings and was managed with local injection of sclerosing agent followed by CO2 Laser fulguration. The patient had a satisfactory outcome and remains asymptomatic.

ABSTRACT

Parapharyngeal space and infratemporal fossa are 2 overlapping spaces in head and neck which have complex anatomy with vital neurovascular structures passing through them. Tumors of this region are extremely rare but majority of them (80%) are benign. Benign tumors of this region can lead to swellings in facial region, neck and oropharynx. Dysphagia may be a complaint of the patient. Many of these tumors have malignant potential. Removal of these tumors requires a good understanding of the anatomy of this space so that correct surgical approach can be selected. The surgeon needs to be adept in using the most suitable surgical approach for excision of these tumors. There are various approaches which can be used to access these deeply seated tumors but the issue of prime importance is selecting the appropriate approach for the various tumors here based on their size and their exact location in this complex anatomical space. Inappropriate approach can lead to inadequate tumor excision and can lead to injuries to the neurovascular structures in this region which can cause significant disability. The case series reported here describes the various approaches to this region and highlights the importance of correct selection of the surgical approach.
