We present a case report of a 66-year-old female with a laryngeal saccular cyst that was treated endoscopically. Although this is an uncommon laryngeal anomaly, when it is recognized and managed appropriately early in the course of its presentation patient complications and morbidity can be avoided. The laryngeal saccular cyst can mimic or be associated with other, more serious, laryngeal pathology, including carcinoma of the larynx. Because of the known association between carcinoma of the larynx and laryngeal saccular cysts, these lesions should be fully evaluated endoscopically and surgically excised. Direct microlaryngoscopy with the use of the operating microscope is a safe and effective method for the treatment of laryngeal saccular cysts.
我们报告一例66岁女性喉囊状囊肿患者，采用内镜治疗。尽管这是一种罕见的喉部异常，但在其发病早期若能得到正确的识别和处理，可避免患者出现并发症和发病情况。喉囊状囊肿可能会模仿或与其他更严重的喉部病变相关，包括喉癌。由于已知喉癌与喉囊状囊肿之间存在关联，因此应对这些病变进行全面的内镜评估并手术切除。使用手术显微镜进行直接显微喉镜检查是治疗喉囊状囊肿的一种安全有效的方法。
