Abstract
Benign and malignant neoplasms of the larynx and trachea are rare entities, accounting for only 2% of the pathologies reported by PH Holinger in a large series of 846 paediatric laryngeal anomalies [8]. Although benign tumours largely outweigh their malignant counterparts by a ratio of 98% to 2%, they can be very challenging for the otolaryngologist.
