Abstract:
The classification, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of neuroendocrine tumors are presented. Rare case of typical carcinoid of the larynx is described. This was the second primary tumor after squamous lung cancer treatment. The diagnosis was based on routine histological investigation, and then confirmed by immunohistochemical tests with synaptophysin, chromogranin, S-100 protein and cytokeratin markers. The clinical presentation of the patient, age, gender, localization, macroscopic appearance and slow growth dynamic was in accordance with cases described in the literature.
