Abstract
Laryngeal myxoma is an uncommon benign mesenchymal neoplasm. It usually presents as a laryngeal polyp with a history of progressive hoarseness. Although benign, they have a propensity for recurrence if not excised properly. The diagnosis of laryngeal myxoma can only be rendered after histopathological evaluation. The laryngeal myxoma can be further classified as cellular myxoma and angiomyxoma, depending on the stromal cellularity and stromal vascularity, respectively. Herein, we report a case of a 66-year-old lady who presented with a cellular myxoma of the larynx. We believe that this is the second case of laryngeal cellular myxoma.
