Abstract

A review of the history and literature of laryngoceles is presented. Ninety-six cases have been reported to date, approximately 50 per cent in the last ten years. Four cases of combined internal and external laryngoceles are reported in the literature. The fifth case is presented herein. A simple classification of laryngocele is suggested. The surgical technic for excision of laryngocele is discussed, and an approach for combined laryngoceles without sectioning either the hyoid bone or the thyroid cartilage is presented.
