Abstract

Schwannoma of the larynx is uncommon neurogenic tumor that can cause the air way obstruction. For benign lesions, conservative surgical excision is the treatment of choice. Recently, we experienced a case of schwannoma originating from the subglottis in a 52 year old female patient. The tumor was removed successfully through endoscopic approach.
