Two patients with laryngeal hemangioma are reported. One was a 37-year-old male complaining of frequent hemoptysis. Examination by indirect laryngoscopy revealed a tumor arising from the left arytenoid region. The mass was removed through lateral pharyngotomy, and was found to be a cavernous hemangioma. The second patient, a 41year-old male, was referred to us because of hoarseness. Indirect laryngoscopy showed a sessile tumor from the left vocal cord. The tumor was removed and the histopathological diagnosis was cavernous hemangioma.
