Granulocytic sarcomas are localized extramedullary deposits of myeloid leukemia cells. These tumors are considered to be specific lesions of acute myeloid leukemia or the onset of a blast crisis in chronic myelogenous leukemia. Granulocytic sarcoma can occur anywhere in the body. Involvement of the larynx by hemopoietic tumors is considered as a rare event. The predominant symptoms are difficulty of breath and hoarseness. We presented a patient with laryngeal granulocytic sarcoma involving the epiglottis, left vocal cord and aryepiglottic fold.
