Abstract:
Giant cell tumors originating in the larynx are extremely rare. This article presents a case of a recurrent postoperative giant cell tumor of the larynx（GCTL）. The patient, a 28-year-old male, underwent a total thyroidectomy in June 2022 due to a thyroid mass. The postoperative pathological diagnosis was giant cell tumor of soft tissues. The patient was readmitted in June 2023 due to the recurrence of the neck mass and underwent partial laryngectomy and partial hypopharyngectomy to completely remove the tumor. Based on postoperative pathology, immunohistochemistry（H3.3 G34W+）, and genetic testing, the neck mass was ultimately diagnosed as GCTL. The patient did not receive radiotherapy or chemotherapy, and at the 12-month postoperative follow-up, there was no evidence of tumor recurrence.
