Rare benign neoplasms of the larynx: rhabdomyoma and lipoma.

Two rare benign tumors of the larynx are presented. The first case is a recurrent multifocal rhabdomyoma, the second a lipoma of the larynx. Both tumors were growing beneath a normal-looking mucosa; deep biopsies were necessary to obtain a histologic diagnosis. Lipomas can be diagnosed by CT or MRI. A review of the literature of these two rare benign tumors is also presented.
