Three patients with laryngeal chondrosarcoma were observed at the ENT Department of Padua University from 1966 to 1983. Including the present observations, about 150 of these neoplasms have been described in the literature. The male to female ratio was 3:1, and the age at diagnosis ranged from 33 to 91 years (median, 66 years). The rate of metastasis was 8 per cent, and histologically positive lymph nodes developed in only five patients. Surgery is the treatment of choice for laryngeal chondrosarcoma. Radical neck dissection does not appear to be indicated, unless results of clinical examination suggest metastatic lymph nodal involvement.
