title: [Neurogenic tumor of the larynx (author's transl)].
abstract: The authors report a case of a 13-year old girl with a neurogenic tumor of the larynx. The tumor was localized in the submucosal region of the arytenoid and aryepiglottic area on the left side of the larynx. Histologically, it was classified as a neurinoma. As it was impossible to remove the tumor totally by endoscopic way, a lateral hypopharyngotomy had to be performed. Two years after this procedure, there are no functional defects or signs of recurrency.
