Low-Grade Malignant Myofibroblastic Sarcoma of the Larynx: A Case Report and Literature Review

Abstract

Squamous cell carcinomas predominate in laryngeal malignancies, while spindle cell tumors, typically derived from non-epithelial tissues, are uncommon, accounting for 0.3%–1% of all malignant laryngeal tumors. Low-grade malignant myofibroblastic sarcoma (LGMS) is an extremely rare, atypical myofibroblastic tumor classified as a spindle cell tumor that primarily affects the head and neck region. There have been few reports in the literature regarding the LGMS of the larynx. LGMS of the larynx was discovered during a pathological biopsy. There was no recurrence during the 6-month follow-up after the total laryngectomy.
