Abstract

Most laryngeal carcinomas are squamous cell carcinomas. Adenocarcinoma of the larynx is rare, its incidence has been reported less than 1% of all laryngeal neoplasms. Adenocarcinoma arises from glandular structures of the larynx and usually arises from the supraglottis. Compared to other carcinoma, deep biopsy and aggressive treatment is manditory. We report a case of adenocarcinoma of the larynx with review of current literatures.
