Laryngeal adult-type hemangiomas are very rare lesions, more frequent in men, whose optimal treatment consists of microlaryngoscopical excision. We herein report a case of larynx cavernous hemangioma in a 64-year-old woman with hoarseness for about six months. Histologically, the tumor was composed of multiple vessels embedded in an edematous stroma.
