An anterior glottic web is an abnormal fusion of the anterior aspect of the membranous vocal folds. Noncongenital glottic webs are usually iatrogenic from intubation or laryngeal surgery. We present six adult patients whose initial in-office diagnoses were consistent with "idiopathic" benign anterior glottic webs as determined by three laryngologists (a.m.k., j.m.b., m.j.p.). Further evaluation revealed the diagnoses of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma in all cases. The high risk of malignancy in cases of idiopathic anterior glottic web necessitates biopsy for tissue diagnosis of all such lesions. Laryngoscope, 129:2118-2120, 2019.
声门前黏连带是膜性声带前表面异常融合。非先天性声门前黏连带通常是由插管或喉手术引起的医源性损伤。我们介绍了 6 例成年患者,3 位喉镜专家(a.m.k.、j.m.b.、m.j.p.)的初步门诊诊断均符合“特发性”良性声门前黏连带。进一步评估显示,所有病例均为喉鳞状细胞癌。特发性声门前黏连带恶性风险高,所有此类病变均需进行活检以获得组织学诊断。《喉镜》,129:2118-2120,2019.
