Leiomyosarcoma of the larynx. Review of the literature and report of two cases.
TL;DR: Two new cases of Leiomyosarcoma of the larynx observed in the last 3 years at the department of Oncology are presented, with no evidence of local recurrence or distant metastasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extracardiac rhabdomyoma: Report of different types with light microscopic and ultrastructural studies
TL;DR: Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma must be considered in differential diagnosis particularly for fetal type rhabDomyoma and the female genital tract type, which contain a mixture of muscle cells in different stages of differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spindle-cell Tumours of the Larynx: Diagnostic Pitfalls. A Case Report and Review of the Literature
TL;DR: Ambiguous and indeterminate diagnoses are also possible after immunohistochemical investigations of the expression of specific tumour markers but electron microscopic observations help to clarify most of these diagnoses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immunochemistry and electron microscopy of head and neck rhabdomyoma.
TL;DR: Four cases ofhabdomyomas are presented, three arising in the larynx and the other in the cervical region, and immunohistochemical staining for myoglobin, desmin, and vimentin was carried out to study the diagnostic features of the lesions and their histogenesis.

TL;DR: Primary treatment in both cases should be surgical resection with small (T1, T2) malignant tumours suitable for partial laryngectomy, and postoperative radiotherapy may have a role in allowing a more limited surgical resections.

TL;DR: In this review of reported cases of smooth muscle (stromal) tumors of the oral cavity and pharynx from 1884 through 1996, there were almost twice as many leiomyomas as LMSs, which was consistent with smooth muscle tumors found in other areas of the gastrointestinal tract.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-epidermoid cancer of the larynx.
TL;DR: Various forms of adenocarcinoma of minor salivary gland type represent the single largest group in this series, comprising 17 of the 31 cases and were further classified as either adenoid cystic carcinoma or mucoepidermoid carcinoma.
