Abstract
Laryngeal mucoepidermoid carcinoma is rare. Approximately 85 cases have been reported in the literature. There is no standardized treatment because of the rarity of the disease. A case of a 55-year-old man with laryngeal mucoepidermoid carcinoma, who was treated with total laryngectomy and postoperative radiotherapy, is presented, and current literature is reviewed.
