@entity1418 ( @entity1418 ) is the most common soft-tissue @entity242 of late adult life, but is relatively uncommon in the head and neck region. That region has been reported to be the origin of malignant @entity82 in 3-10% of cases. Only one case of the @entity5 occurring in the pharynx has been reported. Histologically it is sometimes hard to distinguish this @entity5 from some @entity242 and @entity189 . The treatment of choice is a large surgical resection, while radiotherapy and chemotherapy are reserved for recurrences. The authors present a case of oropharyngeal malignant @entity82 . The @entity1 complained @entity1282 and @entity8408 progressively worsening in six months. Pharyngo-laryngoscopy revealed a mass of the left lateral wall of oro and hypopharynx. CT scan examination showed a capsuled mass which displaced but not involved the neck neurovascular structures; there was no evidence of linphonodal involvement. Transoral surgical excision of the mass was performed with the preservation of speech and swallowing. For more than 1 year postoperatively, there has been no evidence of the disease or @entity3 .
