A 66-year-old man had five cystic lesions of the epiglottis, which were discovered at autopsy. He had complained of hoarseness and dysphagia, but no laryngeal examination was performed because of his terminal condition due to widespread adenocarcinoma that did not involve the larynx. To our knowledge, this is the fourth reported case of multiple laryngeal ductal cysts. To develop a concept of the pathogenesis of these cysts, the normal salivary gland-duct epithelial histologic characteristics were studied in 17 epiglottises that were obtained from children and adults at autopsy. We conclude that the cysts arise from the collecting ducts rather than the smaller interlobular or intralobular ducts.
一名66岁男性在尸检时发现会厌有5个囊性病变。他曾抱怨声音嘶哑和吞咽困难，但由于广泛的腺癌（未累及喉部）导致病情晚期，未进行喉镜检查。据我们所知，这是第四例报告的多发性喉导管囊肿病例。为了阐明这些囊肿的发病机制，我们研究了17例儿童和成人尸检获得的会厌中正常涎腺导管上皮的组织学特征。我们得出结论，这些囊肿起源于集合管而非较小的小叶间或小叶内导管。
