Chondrosarcoma is a rare tumor. In this study, we present a case with laryngeal chondrosarcoma that was treated by an endolaryngeal approach using an operation microscope. The patient remains disease-free to date, with no evidence of new or recurrent disease more than 3 years after the endolaryngeal surgery. The computerized tomography and endoscopic examinations did not reveal any recurrent disease, indicating the success of the endolaryngeal approach.

Laryngeal rare tumors include benign and malignant tumors of epithelial, non-epithelial, or mesenchymal origin. Chondrosarcomas are the most common mesenchymal malignant tumors of the larynx. We performed a literature review (Pubmed/Medline; PRISMA 2020) to detect the frequency of published studies from 2021 to April 2024 regarding benign and malignant epithelial, non-epithelial, or mesenchymal rare tumors of the larynx, emphasizing laryngeal chondrosarcoma (LC) cases.

Laryngeal transplant (LT) is a promising option to restore quality of life in patients with severe laryngeal dysfunction or a laryngectomy. These patients may be tracheostomy tube dependent or gastrostomy tube dependent and may lose their ability to verbally communicate. The loss of these important functions frequently results in social isolation and a severe decrease in quality of life.
