Combined Laryngocele and External Approach

Zusammenfassung: | Laryngocele, a dilation of the laryngeal saccule, is an uncommon and benign air-filled lesion that expands upwards into the ventricle of Morgagni. A unilateral growth within the larynx that is in communication with the laryngeal lumen typically signals its presence. The exact cause of the disorder remains uncertain, although there are three main theories which suggest congenital reasons, increased pressure in the larynx, or mechanical obstruction of the ventricle of Morgagni. The classification for laryngoceles is based upon their location with respect to the thyrohyoid membrane, and they may be internal, external, or combined. A laryngocele, along with a gradually enlarging submandibular mass, was located in the region from below the hyoid bone to the anterior sternocleidomastoid muscle on the right side of the neck. The diagnosis of a laryngocele may be confirmed through clinical examination, endoscopic investigation and imaging tests. For cases of combined laryngocele, we recommend its removal using an external approach, which not only ensures safety and accuracy but also allows for a complete removal of the laryngocele. Additionally, this approach guarantees that the surgical intervention is carried out with maximum precision and effectiveness, as all procedures will be performed under direct visualization.Laryngocele, a dilation of the laryngeal saccule, is an uncommon and benign air-filled lesion that expands upwards into the ventricle of Morgagni.
