title: [Giant cell tumor of the cricoid bone. Apropos of a case].
abstract: The authors report about one case of giant-cell tumor of the cricoid bone (osteoclastoma, myeloplaxic tumor). The diagnosis is difficult as the clinical and radiological symptoms are not specific. A detailed iconography sums up the clinicopathological characteristics of this tumor. The authors emphasize the necessity to perform wide exeresis surgery through total laryngectomy.
