title: [Laryngeal neurofibroma. A case report and literature review].
abstract: Neurofibroma is a rare pathology on the larynx. We distinguish two types of neurofibromas: plexiform and not plexiform in which the difference is at the cytoarchitectural level. The plexiform type is usually associated to the Von Recklinhausen disease, also know as neurofibromatosis type 1. They usually affect the supraglottic structure, and more frequently they are described in aritenoids, ariepiglottic folds, and posterior commissure. We present a case located at the glottic level of plexiform type, with a postsurgical follow-up of five years. We make a revision of the aethiopathogenesis, evolution and prognostic of these pathology in the bibliography.
