Physical ENT examination revealed a smooth normal mucosal mass on the left lateral pharyngeal wall, which masked the inlet of the larynx, and bilateral cervical lymph nodes but no other mucosal lesions. Anti\u2013human immunodeficiency virus antibodies were found to be negative. Hemoglobin, hematocrit, white blood cell count, and platelet count were normal. Serum protein electrophoresis was also normal. A CT scan confirmed the lesion and lymph node involvement. Treatment consisted of a transoral endoscopic resection with ligature of the pedicle, with the patient under general anesthesia. The patient's improved medical condition permitted 11 cycles of bleomycin (15 mg\/3 weeks).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results.<\/jats:title><jats:p>A 5\u2010month fibroscopic follow\u2010up control showed no recurrence, and total clinical regression was observed after 1 year.
