Abstract
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare benign tumor, that is composed of myofibroblastic spindle cells with inflammatory cells. IMTs usually occur in lungs, intestine organs, orbits and paranasal sinuses, however, it may rarely be seen in the larynx. We present two cases of patients with laryngeal IMT that had different causes and prognosis.
