This study reports the first documented case of a vocal cord cyst in a neonate, presenting with stridor and respiratory distress. Simple incision resolved symptoms, suggesting congenital origin for these rare cysts.

Area of Science:

  • Laryngology
  • Pediatric Otolaryngology
  • Congenital Abnormalities

Background:

  • Vocal cord cysts are uncommon, typically affecting older children and adults with dysphonia, often linked to voice abuse.
  • Intracordal cysts are rare laryngeal anomalies.

Observation:

  • Presents the first recorded and photographed case of an intracordal cyst in a neonate.
  • The neonate exhibited episodic stridor, respiratory distress, and feeding difficulties.

Findings:

  • Symptoms resolved rapidly following a simple incision of the intracordal cyst.
  • This case supports the theory that intracordal cysts can be congenital in origin.

Implications:

  • Highlights the possibility of congenital intracordal cysts presenting in neonates.

  • Suggests that prompt surgical intervention, such as incision, can effectively manage neonatal respiratory distress caused by such cysts.
  • Contributes to understanding the etiology of vocal cord cysts, emphasizing a congenital basis in some cases.
