Laryngeal Chondroma: An Unusual Complication Endotracheal Entubation.
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery 2016 June
INTRODUCTION: Laryngeal cartilaginous framework tumors are very rare. Chondroma and chondrosarcoma are the most common types of these tumors.
PATIENT PRESENTATION: A 27-year-old man with a history of intubation presented with exercise-induced dyspnea. A computed tomography scan of larynx showed a rounded and circumscribed mass without infiltration of the adjacent structures which obstructs 75% of airway. Histopathological investigation of the mass revealed the chondroma of the larynx. The patients' history of intubation trauma with the subsequent progressive onset of clinical symptoms demonstrates the relationship between these 2 entities.
CONCLUSION: Clinicians should consider laryngeal chondroma in the differential diagnosis of dyspnea after endotracheal intubation.
