RESUMO
Granulocytic sarcoma (GS), an uncommon solid extramedullary tumour, should be considered even in the absence of leukaemia, as delay in diagnosis and treatment worsens the prognosis. We present a GS (single humeral bone lesion) in a non-leukaemia patient, treated with intensive AML (Acute Myeloid Leukaemia) chemotherapy and sequential radiotherapy, in complete response 26 months after diagnosis, confirmed by histopathology and without leukaemia progression (AU)

We report a new case of supraglottic primary laryngeal lymphoma. The tumor was a B-cell, non-Hodgkin lymphoma with good response to polychemotherapy and radiotherapy. Although the head and neck region is a frequent site of origin of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphomas, laryngeal involvement is exceptional. Including this case, 88 primary laryngeal lymphomas have been reported in the literature.
