Abstract:
Sarcoma of the larynx are extremely rare neoplasms that account for approximately 1% of all tumors of this organ. Less than 0.1% correspond to chondrosarcomas. Three cases of laryngeal chondromas are described. The patient's age ranged between 65 and 75 years, and all they were men. Two of the tumors arose in the cricoid cartilage, and the other one, in the left wing of the thyroid cartilage. Two of the cases corresponded to high-grade, indifferentiated chondrosarcoma. Two of the patients were alive and free of recurrence of metastases 5 years after surgery.
