Localized laryngeal lymphoma.
A 23-year-old man with a 3-month history of hoarseness was found to have a polypoid histiocytic lymphoma arising from the anterior commissure and the adjacent epiglottis. Work-ups including a staging laparotomy were negative. Irradiation of 4,400 rads to the larynx was given. The patient was disease-free 3 1/2 years after diagnosis.
