Abstract :Malignant fibrous histiocytoma MFH , which particularly involves the trunk and the upper and lower limbs, originates from the mesenchymal tissue. The larynx is one of the very rare locations. The disease has a poor prognosis due to local recurrence and metastasis. The first-line treatment is wide excision of the tumor. Herein, we report a case of MFH of the vocal fold in a 68-year-old man presenting with recurrence.
