Abstract:
A rare observation of ossifying fibromyxoid tumor of the larynx in a 23-year-old young man is presented. Surgical intervention, performed in two stages, provided a positive result. With dynamic observation of this patient for three years, continued growth and tumor recurrence were not observed. Due to the fact that ossifying fibromyxoid tumor is rare, differs in the complexity of differential diagnosis and an uncertain prognosis of the course of the disease, registration and dispensary observation of patients with this pathology is necessary.
