Zusammenfassung:	An exceptional case of pleomorphic malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the larynx occurring in a 68-year-old male patient is reported. A significant histological documentation is given. Problems connected with histogenesis, treatment and prognosis are dealt with. Stress is laid on the need to establish differential diagnosis from other neoplasms, in particular liposarcoma and spindle-cell carcinoma.
