title: Vocal cord schwannoma: a rare case report.
abstract: Schwannomas of the larynx are rare benign tumors, most commonly involving aryepiglottic folds or false vocal folds. When a tumor involves vocal cord, it causes clinical symptoms like hoarseness of voice and foreign body sensation. We report the CT and magnetic resonance imaging findings in a 19-year-old male patient with vocal cord mass histologically diagnosed as a vocal cord schwannoma.
