Objective: To present a case of vocal cord polyp in a pediatric patient and discuss its differential diagnosis, assessment and management.               Methods:             Study Design: Case Report             Setting: Tertiary Public Hospital             Participant: One               Results: A seven-year-old girl presented with hoarseness and a benign, unilateral mass seen at the junction of anterior and middle third of the vocal cord. The hoarseness resolved after excision, and histopathology confirmed an inflammatory vocal cord pseudo polyp.               Conclusion: Vocal cord polyps occur infrequently in children and adolescents. These cases are seldomly seen and reported and may arise from chronic abuse of the larynx, vocal cord trauma or phonotrauma. Hoarseness is the most common presenting symptom. Differential diagnoses include recurrent respiratory papillomatosis, laryngeal cyst and laryngeal nodule. The management of vocal cord polyps involves surgical removal followed by speech therapy.             Keywords: hoarseness, phonotrauma, vocal cord polyp, recurrent respiratory papillomatosis, vocal cord nodule, vocal cord cyst, flexible laryngoscopy, speech therapy

Objectives. The purpose of this study was to investigate serum pituitary tumor transforming gene (PTTG1) expression in laryngeal carcinoma and its relationship with the clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis.Methods. Expression of serum PTTG1 was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in 110 patients with laryngeal carcinoma and 60 patients with vocal cord polyps. Expression of the serum PTTG1 levels relationship with the clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis were analyzed.Results. In laryngeal carcinoma patients’ serum, the PTTG1 median concentration was 141.43 pg/mL (interquartile range [IQR], 111.387 to 160.837 pg/mL), significantly higher than that of the vocal cord polyp group of 94.01 pg/mL (IQR, 81.26 to 108.59 pg/mL), and the difference was statistically significant (z=–6.715, P<0.001). PTTG1 expression with lymph node metastasis, clinical stage, and patients with laryngeal carcinoma was significantly correlated with the tumor differentiation degree (P<0.05). The total survival rate of the PTTG1 high expression group was significantly lower than the low expression group, and the difference of total survival time of the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.001).Conclusion. The PTTG1 expression level can be used as an index for evaluating prognosis of laryngeal cancer. High PTTG1 expression is one of the factors of poor prognosis of laryngeal carcinoma patients.

Laryngeal liposarcoma is an unusual tumor. Only 16 cases have been previously reported. We describe a new case of well-differentiated laryngeal liposarcoma and review the literature. The tumor was treated by surgical removal. Immunohistochemical study showed an immunophenotype consistent with liposarcoma. The case described is of the oldest patient (83 years old), the second to be found in a woman, and the second to be localized to one true vocal cord (according to the literature reviewed). The patient is still free of tumor 2 years later. The treatment and prognosis of liposarcoma of the larynx are discussed.

Background: In ENT clinics, benign lesions of the larynx are fairly normal. It is not always simple to have a clinical-histological link, but a correct diagnosis is of the utmost importance. The purpose of the present study was to study the clinical profile of benign lesions of the larynx and histopathological trends. Material and Methods: With indirect laryngoscopy or video laryngoscopy, a total of 100 patients clinically diagnosed as cases of benign laryngeal lesion were examined. Under local or general anaesthesia, direct laryngoscopy was performed. The lesion biopsy was sent for histopathological research. Results: Most of the patients were between 21-30 years old, i.e. 38%. Males were more generally affected (62 percent) than females. The principal concern in (84 percent) of cases was hoarseness or change of speech. In 56 per cent of cases, verbal abuse has been shown to be a predisposing factor. The most common clinical diagnosis was vocal cord nodule in 34 percent of cases, followed by vocal cord polyp in 22 percent of cases. Conclusion: The nodules of the vocal cord are the most common benign laryngeal lesions, causing speech hoarseness as the main complaint. The ENT diagnosis and the pathological diagnosis of benign laryngeal lesions were strongly associated. Keywords: Larynx, benign lesions, hoarseness of voice, histopathology.

Hoarseness of voice is one of the commonest symptom in otolaryngological practice and it indicates diseases ranging from totally benign condition to the most malignant condition. The aim of this study was to analyze clinical profile, to find out common etiological factors and association of common predisposing factors leading to hoarseness of voice. The study was carried out in the department of ENT, CMB, BAF Dhaka, from February 2014 to July 2016. A total of 130 patients having hoarseness of voice were selected coming to the OPD. All the patients then underwent a detailed history, ENT examinations and investigations to reach a diagnosis. Out of total 130 patients 76(58.47 %) were males and 54 (41.53) were females. Male predominance was observed with male female ratio of 1.49: 1. Common age group involved was 31- 40 years in 29 (20.7%) cases. Common etiology included chronic laryngitis in 37 (28.46%) cases, vocal nodules in 20 (15.38%), vocal cord polyp in 18 (13.84%), acute laryngitis in 10 (7.69%), vocal cord cyst in 9 (6.92%), hypothyroidism in 7 (5.38%) and Carcinoma larynx in 6 (4.61%) patients. Most of the etiopathological factors found in this study were treatable disease. So, early diagnosis can reduce the morbidity and mortality Bangladesh J Otorhinolaryngol; April 2017; 23(1): 47-51
