Summary : Introduction: Primary malignant melanoma of the larynx is a very rare entity. There are less than sixty cases described in the literature. Through both cases, we describe and discuss the clinical management of melanoma of the larynx. Clinical cases: Two men aged 80 and 61 years were supported for MPL. The tumor was revealed by persistent dysphonia for the first. For the second, it was a second melanoma of laryngeal location. In both cases it was performed a total laryngectomy extended to the first tracheal rings with bilateral lymphadenectomy asso­ciated with adjuvant radiotherapy. Discussion: Excision margins with oncological safety are necessary to except a curative surgery. Still controversial, the adjuvant radiotherapy seems to provide a benefit in terms of local control. The place of targeted therapies remains unclear. However, no prognostic factor is currently clearly identified for this disease. Conclu­sion: Rare tumor, the MPL is associated with a very poor prognosis. Resective surgery followed by adjuvant radio­therapy is for us the treatment of choice.
