title: [ORL localizations of Abrikosov's tumors. Apropos of 5 cases. A tumor which is not always benign].
abstract: Abrikossoff's tumor is a benign lesion affecting the oropharynx in more than half the cases. Five cases are reported and symptoms and signs reviewed. Treatment was by wide excision, although a less extensive operation is possible to avoid major damage to surrounding structures. This attitude can be adapted because the course of the affection is by slow progression, with the possibility of no further growth, and the fact that surgery can be repeated.
