We report a case of poorly differentiated mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the larynx. The tumor was supraglottic, located on the left aryepiglottic fold, and produced left laryngeal paresis. The patient underwent total laryngectomy, functional neck dissection, and complementary radiotherapy. After 20 months, untreatable lung metastases appeared. Mucoepidermoid carcinomas of the larynx are rare. They are generally unresponsive to radiotherapy and are best treated surgically, although postoperative radiotherapy is advocated for high-grade, poorly differentiated cases.
