[Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the larynx: review of the literature and caseload].
Two cases of laryngeal adenoid cystic carcinoma (1 supraglottic, 1 subglottic) are reported, particular attention being paid to diagnosis and treatment. The literature on this topic has been reviewed, in order to describe the natural course and the different treatments of this tumour. The authors underline the difficulty in evaluating the effectiveness of treatment, due to the insufficient follow-up in most published cases.
