Abstract


Aim: A patient with large internal laryngocele managed with endoscopic microsurgical excision is discussed.

Subject: Laryngocele are rare abnormal dilatations of the laryngeal saccule. A variety of surgical treatments have been proposed. The large internal laryngocele has traditionally been managed through an external approach. We endoscopically excised with partial vestibulectomy a large internal laryngocele using suspension microlaryngoscopy and cold blade, similar to the technique of laser excision of laryngocele.

Result: Endoscopic microsurgery appears to be an acceptable treatment even for large internal laryngoceles.

Key Words: Internal laryngocele, Endoscopy, Partial vestibulectomy
