    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Multiple laryngeal ductal cysts, a rare finding, were observed in an autopsy case. These epiglottic cysts likely originate from collecting ducts of salivary glands.

    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Pathology
    • Histology

    Background:

    • Laryngeal ductal cysts are rare, with only three prior reported cases.
    • This study investigates the pathogenesis of multiple laryngeal ductal cysts.

    Observation:

    • A 66-year-old male autopsy case revealed five cystic lesions of the epiglottis.
    • The patient experienced hoarseness and dysphagia, but the larynx was not examined due to terminal illness.

    Findings:

    • Histologic examination of 17 epiglottises suggests cysts arise from collecting ducts.
    • This contrasts with origins from smaller interlobular or intralobular ducts.

    Implications:

    • Understanding the origin of these cysts aids in diagnosing and managing laryngeal pathologies.
    • This case contributes to the limited literature on multiple laryngeal ductal cysts.
