Abstract

Laryngocele is a benign abnormal dilatation of the laryngeal saccule. We present a 30-year-old male patient who complained with hoarseness since 1 year. Paraglottic laryngocele is detected on medical examination. The patient is operated on successfully with our new thyroid cartilage preserved technique (modified lateral thyrotomy method).
