Vocal Cord Nodule with Stromal Atypia: Case Report and Review of Literature

Vocal cord nodule is a common reactive transformation of the laryngeal mucosa encountered routinely. Although benign, rare instances of stromal atypia have been demonstrated, which can often be confused with other spindle cell lesions. There is a dearth of literature explaining this peculiar transformation. Hence, the diagnosis of these lesions can be put-forth only after histopathological evaluation and appropriate immunohistochemical analysis. Herein, we report a case of a 55-year-old male who presented with vocal cord nodule with stromal atypia.
