Dysphonia and airway obstruction are rarely caused by Kaposi's Sarcoma (KS). We present the case of a 40 year old man receiving his diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) after presenting with hoarseness caused by laryngeal KS. HIV may contribute to KS growth by stimulating excess

Granular cell tumors (GCT) are rare and usually benign tumors whose histogenesis is debated. The skin, subcutaneous tissues, and mucosae of the head and neck are areas of predilection for GCT. Laryngeal involvement is uncommon, but may create diagnostic and therapeutic problems when it occurs.

We present a case of an 88-year-old man with high-grade chondrosarcoma of the larynx. The patient presents with a history worsening dysphonia and dyspnoea treated with antibiotic and corticosteroid therapy as it was a bronchopneumonia. Thanks to fibrolaryngoscopy, radiological imaging and final

An eight-year-old Doberman pinscher was presented with a four-week history of inspiratory stridor, dysphonia, inappetence and weight loss. Inspiratory stridor was apparent and became more pronounced during gentle compression of the larynx. Previous investigations, including laryngoscopy, had

Leiomyosarcomas are extremely rare tumors which develop from smooth muscle, usually in the esophagus and large vessels (inferior vena cava, pulmonary artery, and superior vena cava). In very rare cases, leiomyosarcomas develop from small vessels in the soft tissue of the mediastinum. Clinical
