Abstract
No previous study has published magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings for a subglottic pleomorphic adenoma. Here, we describe the case of a 62-year-old man with a subglottic pleomorphic adenoma. Endoscopic findings revealed a smooth-surfaced tumor arising from the subglottic posterior wall. MRI revealed the lesion as an isointense region on T1-weighted images, which was homogeneously enhanced. This lesion showed a heterogeneously hyperintense region on T2-weighted images. Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) showed slightly high intensity in the same area, with a normal or only slightly high apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC). Laryngomicrosurgery was performed for transoral excision of the subglottic tumor, resulting in a postsurgical diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma.
