Abstract

Mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the larynx is an uncommon malignancy. İt is mostly located in the supraglottis. İt frequently occurs in middle-aged and elderly men. The treatment is primarily surgical. A 42- year-old man presented with a complaint of hoarseness of six-month history. Examination revealed a swelling involving the right arytenoid, false cord, and vocal cords. The right vocal cord was fixed. A biopsy obtained from the lesion showed a low-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma. He underwent total laryngectomy and right functional neck dissection.
