Description

This report details the CT, MR, and angiography findings of a solitary fibrous tumor involving the larynx of a 34-year-old man. A precontrast CT scan revealed a well-defined isodense mass in the submucosal region of the supraglottic larynx. The tumor appeared as a mixed intensity lesion on the T1- and T2-weighted MR images. A T2-weighted MR image showed a central, round, and low signal intensity area within the mass. For both the CT and MR images, the mass demonstrated heterogeneous enhancement following the administration of contrast material. The angiography showed a hypervascular tumor with heterogeneous persistent staining
