Larynx

Larynx

The human larynx, often referred to as the voice box, is an intricate organ located in the neck. It serves as a pathway for air to enter the lungs during respiration and is an essential component of voice production.
Anatomy of the Larynx
The larynx consists of various components, including cartilage, muscles, and vocal cords. Its structure includes three large unpaired cartilages—the thyroid, cricoid, and epiglottis—and three smaller paired cartilages—the arytenoids,...

Respiratory System Abnormal Finding II: Palpation and Auscultation

In assessing respiratory abnormalities, palpation and auscultation are critical tools for detecting and interpreting various pathophysiological changes. These techniques provide insight into underlying disorders by evaluating tactile sensations and sounds produced by the respiratory system.
Palpation Findings
During a respiratory assessment, palpation can reveal several vital abnormalities:

Summary

Pleomorphic adenomas, common salivary gland tumors, rarely affect the larynx. Surgical treatment of a laryngeal pleomorphic adenoma in a 76-year-old male was successful, with no relapse after five years.

Area of Science:

Otorhinolaryngology (ENT)
Surgical Pathology
Oncology

Background:

Pleomorphic adenomas are the most common salivary gland tumors, typically found in the parotid glands.
Laryngeal involvement by pleomorphic adenoma is exceptionally rare, with limited documented cases.
This study focuses on a rare instance of pleomorphic adenoma affecting the larynx.

Observation:

A case report of a 76-year-old male patient with a laryngeal pleomorphic adenoma.
The tumor's location and presentation within the larynx were documented.
Clinical and pathological details of the laryngeal pleomorphic adenoma were analyzed.

Findings:

Surgical intervention was performed for the laryngeal pleomorphic adenoma.
The patient experienced a favorable outcome following surgical treatment.

Keywords:
