A case of malignant schwannoma of the larynx in a 9 year old boy is reported. The lesion recurred 29 months later with the same histological pattern. The malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumours of the larynx are rare and are almost exceptional in paediatric age. The Authors discuss the main differential diagnosis of spindle cell paediatric tumors of the laryngeal region.
