Chondrosarcoma of the larynx.

Abstract

Two cases of laryngeal chondrosarcoma are described. The first exhibited a fibrosarcomatous differentiation, which is a rare finding in chondrosarcoma and usually indicates poor prognosis. The second was found in a larynx six years after Teflon injections for the treatment of vocal cord paralysis. The possibility of Teflon as a tumorigenic factor in this case is raised.
