A rare intrinsic lipoma of the left false vocal cord, associated with generalized lipomatosis, was successfully removed via endolaryngeal surgery in a 62-year-old man.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Laryngeal Pathology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Vocal cord lipomas are rare benign tumors.
  • Generalized lipomatosis is a systemic condition characterized by widespread fatty tissue deposition.
  • Intrinsic lipomas arise from within the vocal cord structure.

Observation:

  • A 62-year-old male presented with symptoms related to a left false vocal cord mass.
  • The mass was identified as an intrinsic lipoma.
  • The patient had a history of generalized lipomatosis.

Findings:

  • Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of an intrinsic lipoma of the left false vocal cord.
  • The lipoma was a localized manifestation of the patient's generalized lipomatosis.

  • No evidence of malignancy was found.

    • Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering intrinsic vocal cord lipomas in the differential diagnosis of laryngeal masses.
    • Endolaryngeal surgical removal is a viable and effective treatment option.
    • Understanding the association with generalized lipomatosis is crucial for comprehensive patient management.
