title: Giant supraglottic schwannoma.
abstract: Schwannomas arising from the supraglottis are uncommon, if not rare. They are known to arise from the head and neck region but oropharyngeal presentation is not often seen. Few cases of pedunculated schwannoma arising from the aryepiglottic fold presenting as giant tumours in the oropharynx have been reported so far. The tumour in this case has been excised via intraoral approach, with nil residual morbidity. A follow up period of one year was uneventful without any recurrence.
