We describe a case of synovial sarcoma of the larynx in a previously well 9-year-old boy with a one-month history of a progressively enlarging neck lump. He was referred to our institution after incomplete surgical excision of the then undifferentiated neck mass. A partial laryngectomy including wide local excision of the residual mass was performed. An ipsilateral level I-III neck dissection was also performed concurrently. Clear re-excision margins were achieved. The neck nodes were all negative for metastatic disease. Adjuvant local radiotherapy treatment was administered to reduce the probability of local recurrence. Four years following treatment completion, the patient remains in remission with no signs of treatment-related morbidity. A review of the published literature on laryngeal synovial sarcoma was undertaken. This case represents the youngest patient to be diagnosed with the condition. Surgical excision represents the mainstay of treatment of laryngeal synovial sarcoma. At more common sites of disease, adjuvant radiotherapy has been associated with lower rates of recurrence. However, there is the potential for significant morbidity from irradiating the neck of a paediatric patient. This case report explores the challenges in treating young patients with aggressive head and neck cancers when faced with little available evidence to guide decision-making.","PeriodicalId":504264,"journal":{"name":"Case Reports in Otolaryngology","volume":"196 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140780446","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
