Abstract

Solitary fibrous tumour is a particular kind of mesenchymal tumour, classically arising in the pleura. We report the first case arising in the larynx, associated with a metastasizing adenocarcinoma. The diagnosis is mainly histopathological, especially when strong immunoreactivity for the CD34 antibody is present.
