Abstract
Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) limited to the larynx is very rare. The authors present the clinical diagnosis and treatment of four patients with laryngeal NHL. Case 1 was diagnosed with glottic, subglottic, and tracheal mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, and was treated with radiotherapy and chemotherapy after surgery. Case 2 was diagnosed with laryngeal MALT lymphoma and underwent radiotherapy. Case 3 was diagnosed with angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, and was treated with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Case 4 had MALT lymphoma in the glottic area with a malignant thyroid tumor, and was treated with radiotherapy and chemotherapy after surgery. More reports and research on this disease are needed.
