Abstract
Liposarcoma of the larynx and hypopharynx is very rare. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations may synergistically disclose suggestive features of a fat-containing tumor with non-fatty enhancing sub-areas. Diagnosis relies on histological examination of a biopsic specimen. This rare pathology should ultimately be kept in mind when dealing with an laryngeal/hypopharyngeal mass.
