Laryngeal leiomyosarcoma: a case report and review of the literature.

Laryngeal leiomyosarcoma (LLM) is a rare malignancy originating from the smooth muscles of blood vessels or from aberrant undifferentiated mesenchymal tissue. Histological diagnosis may be particularly difficult and correct diagnosis is based on immunohistochemical investigations and electron microscopy. A case report of a LLM in a 74-year-old man is presented.
