Leiomyosarcoma
(
LMS
) of the larynx is a very rare malignancy that originates from blood vessel, smooth muscle or from the heterotopic mesenchymal tissue in the larynx. The histological diagnosis of
LMS
depends on the immunohistochemical investigation. The case is here presented of an 82-year-old man with
shortness of breath
and hoarseness. Indirect laryngoscopy showed a pedunculated large glottic lesion causing airway obstruction. Direct laryngoscopy was performed and biopsies were taken. From the pathological examination, the diagnosis of
LMS
was made. This case is presented of laryngeal
LMS
with the clinical, radiological, and histological findings.
