Diagnosed with laryngeal chondrosarcoma

Posted by jane1962 @jane1962, 2 days ago

I have been diagnosed with a laryngeal chondrosarcoma which is uncommon in location in which the tumor is growing (behind my left vocal cord). I underwent surgery 2 years ago to de bulk the tumor; however there has since been a reoccurrence and a new tumor is growing. It is classified as a low grade tumor and is not causing problems with breathing or swallowing at this time. One option that has been discussed is a total laryngectomy, I’m just wondering if anyone has been presented with this treatment and if you sought a second opinion about laryngectomy.
Thanks 🙏
