Introduction
Haemangioma is a benign vascular tumor, of endothelial origin, that affects the head and neck region in 60% of cases. Laryngeal
localization is rare.
Case Presentation
In the last 9-years, we observed three cases of laryngeal haemangioma, two females, and one male. All patients underwent to
surgical excision. None of the three cases had intraoperative complications.
Discussion
Conclusion
Keywords
The elective treatment of laryngeal haemangiomas remains controversial. In our cases, we opted for laser excision and we noticed
that the risk of haemorrhages was particularly low, without no post-surgery complications.
We believe that due to the low morbidity and the fast-clinical recovery after treatment with definitive problem resolution, surgical
treatment with laser CO2
should be always considered for treatment of laryngeal haemangioma.
