Abstract

Lymphoepithelial carcinoma (LEC) refers to a non-keratinized undifferentiated type of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. It rarely originates from the larynx mucosa. A 73-year-old male patient with a long term history of snoking was admitted to the hospital with a one-year history of dyspnea, dysphagia and dysphonia. Laryngeal LEC diagnosis was confirmed by a laryngeal biopsy. We presented a case report of locally advanced LEC of the larynx with only radiotherapy treatment.
