Rhabdomyosarcoma of the larynx: a case report and review of the literature.
Rhabdomyosarcoma is rarely diagnosed in the larynx. A case report and five patients from the Otolaryngic Pathologic Files of the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology are added to the world literature. Current modes of treating Stage III rhabdomyosarcomas are reviewed. The recent literature suggests that certain of these neoplasms may be treated successfully without radical surgery.
