Int J Pediatr Otorhinolaryngol. 2004 Dec;68(12):1551-5. doi: 10.1016/j.ijporl.2004.07.005.

Abstract

Primary chondroid tumors of the larynx constitute less than 1% of all laryngeal tumors and are usually prevalent in adults. Relevant English literature presents only two pediatric laryngeal chondroma cases. In this paper, a novel pediatric case of laryngeal chondroma presenting as an external laryngeal mass is reported.
