Primary laryngeal clear cell chondrosarcoma: report of a case and literature review.
We present an example of clear cell chondrosarcoma (CCC) arising in the thyroid cartilage, and review the literature regarding this neoplasm in the larynx. This patient has no evidence of disease 3 years post hemilaryngectomy. Although rare and morphologically distinct, CCC follows the same benign clinical course as conventional laryngeal chondrosarcoma.
