A case of laryngeal chondrosarcoma in a 63-year-old woman is presented. The report illustrates most of the features of this rare neoplasm, the difficulties in the histopathological evaluation and supports the previous ones that recommend an initial conservative attitude towards low grade laryngeal chondrosarcomas.
