Tsunoda et al. (1997) conducted a case report in Laryngeal myxoma (n=1). Phonosurgery was evaluated on Diagnosis and removal of mass. Phonosurgery successfully excised a 7 mm encapsulated mass from the right vocal fold of a 57-year-old man, which was subsequently diagnosed as a rare laryngeal myxoma.
