[Primary carcinoid of the larynx].

Primary carcinoid of the larynx is an extremely rare neoplasm. Only seven cases could be traced in the literature so far. The authors report another case in a 71 year-old male patient. Gross examination revealed a large ulcerated tumor of the right part of the supraglottic larynx. Microscopically, the tumor was composed of nests and sheets of relatively uniform cells with round nuclei. A Grimelius stain showed positively stained granules in the cytoplasm of the cells. One cervical lymph node presented little metastatic foci of the tumor cells. A review of the medical literature showed that all laryngeal carcinoid were pathologically malignant and the treatment of choice is the surgical excision.

[Broncho-alveolar spread in a case of juvenile laryngeal papillomatosis (author's transl)].

The authors report the case of a 30-year-old man suffering from juvenile laryngeal papillomatosis, recurrent since the age of 4. 23 years later, multiple round opacities were found in the lungs, progressing slowly to excavation. Bronchoscopy with broncho-aspiration provided histological confirmation of the diagnosis of broncho-alveolar spread of the papillomatosis, made on the basis of plain films and tomography.
