Resumen

El neurinoma laríngeo es un tumor benigno extremadamente raro que deriva de las células de Schwann y se puede confundir con un neurofibroma. La forma de presentación más frecuente es una masa supraglótica que deriva de la rama interna del nervio laríngeo superior y es la RMN el método que mejor establece el diagnóstico de sospecha. Presentamos un caso tratado en nuestro servicio, cuya excepcionalidad radica en el largo tiempo de evolución, volumen elevado que conlleva disnea e inmovilidad de la hemilaringe afecta, que se recupera tras cirugía con abordaje externo. Se discuten las dificultades planteadas por su diagnóstico clínico y anátomo-patológico, al tiempo que se hace una revisión de la bibliografía pertinente

Abstract

Neuromas or Schwannomas are extremely rare among tumors of the larynx. They are Shwann cell tumors that can be difficult to distinguish from neurofibromas. They present usually as supraglottic masses, since they may arise from the internal branch of the superior laryngeal nerve. Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging is the best diagnostic technique, conferring a high degree of suspicion. We present an exceptional case of a laryngeal neuroma, with a very long evolution, a large tumor volume, dyspnea and vocal cord fixation, with complete resolution through an external approach following surgical removal. The difficulties encountered with its pathological and clinical diagnosis are discussed as well as a review of the literature
