A laryngeal saccular cyst, an uncommon anomaly, was successfully treated with endoscopic surgery. Early recognition and surgical excision of these cysts are crucial to prevent complications and rule out associated laryngeal carcinoma.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Laryngeal Pathology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Laryngeal saccular cysts are rare laryngeal anomalies.
  • These cysts can present asymptomatically or with symptoms like hoarseness or dysphagia.
  • They may mimic or be associated with serious laryngeal pathologies, including carcinoma.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report a case of laryngeal saccular cyst treated endoscopically.
  • To emphasize the importance of early diagnosis and management.
  • To highlight the association between laryngeal saccular cysts and laryngeal carcinoma.

Main Methods:

  • A case report of a 66-year-old female patient.
  • Endoscopic evaluation and surgical excision using direct microlaryngoscopy with an operating microscope.

Main Results:

  • The patient underwent successful endoscopic treatment for the laryngeal saccular cyst.
  • No immediate complications were reported post-procedure.

Conclusions:

  • Laryngeal saccular cysts require thorough endoscopic evaluation and surgical excision due to potential association with malignancy.
  • Direct microlaryngoscopy is a safe and effective treatment modality for laryngeal saccular cysts.
  • Timely intervention can prevent patient complications and morbidity.
