Primary Marginal Zone B-Cell Lymphoma of the Larynx

Abstract

Extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphomas limited to the larynx are rare, accounting for less than 1% of all laryngeal neoplasms. The most common site of development of primary laryngeal lymphomas is the supraglottic region. In most cases, the presenting symptoms are hoarseness, dysphagia, dyspnea, and cervical lymphadenopathy. In these cases, larynx lymphoma was the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue type and located in the supraglottic area.
