Abstract

Hemangioma is one of the most common benign tumors in the head and neck region. Laryngeal hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors of unknown etiology that arise from subglottic region with stridor in infants. This type also known as congenital laryngeal hemangioma, is the more common. Congenital hemangiomas occur usually in subglottic region and more frequent in girls. Laryngeal hemangioma in adults is a very rare condition and main symptom is hoarseness and breathing difficulties. Adult hemangiomas can be seen in different locations such as the epiglottis, aryepiglottic folds, arytenoids and false and true vocal cords. They are more often of cavernous form and cause hoarseness. In this report we present an adult patient with hemangioma of the left vocal fold and review the literature. Diagnostic investigation revealed a pink-purple mass which was extended from the anterior comissure to the posterior part of true vocal cord and false vocal cord, filling the ventricule and extending to supraglottic region. Direct laryngoscopy was performed, but the lesion was not excised because of its widespread extension in the larynx.

Abstract

Hemanjiom baş ve boyun bölgesinde en sık rastlanan benign tümörlerden biridir. Laringeal hemanjiomlar genellikle çocukluk çağında görülen, genellikle subglottik alana yerleşerek stridora neden olan hamartömatöz lezyonlardır. Daha sıklıkla rastlanan bu tipine konjenital laringeal hemanjiom denir. Konjenital laringeal hemanjiom kız çocuklarında daha sık görülür. Laringeal hemanjiomlar erişkinlerde nadiren görülür ve genellikle ses kısıklığı ve nefes darlığı şikayetlerine neden olurlar. Erişkin hemanjiomları; epiglot, ariepiglottik kıvrım, aritenoidler, ventriküler bantlar ve ses telleri gibi değişik bölgelere yerleşebilir. Erişkin hemanjiomları sıklıkla kavernöz yapıdadır ve ses kısıklığına neden olurlar. Makalede erişkin bir hastada sol ses tellerinde tespit edilen laringeal hemanjiom olgusu sunuldu ve bu konudaki literatür incelendi. Tanısal incelemeler sonunda hastanın larinksinde, ses telleri lokalizasyonunda ön komissürden arka komissüre kadar uzanan, ventrikülü doldurup ventriküler bandı tutan ve supraglottik bölgeye uzanan pembe-mor renkli bir kitle tespit edildi. Direkt laringoskopik inceleme yapıldı fakat lezyonun larinks içinde yaygın olarak yerleşmesi nedeniyle çıkarılmadı.
