MÝKST TÝP LARÝNGOMUKOSEL

Laringosel larenksin seyrek görülen bir anomalisi olup laringeal ventrikül sakkülünün hava dolu dilatasyonudur. Kitle içinde mukus bulunursa "laringomukosel" olarak adlandýrýlýr. Özelllikle boyunda kitle ve ses kýsýklýðý þikayeti olan hastalarda laringosel tanýsý akýlda bulundurulmalýdýr. Kliniðimize solunum sýkýntýsý nedeniyle gelen, trakeotomi açýlan hastada klinik bulgularla öncelikle malignite düþünülmüþ, alýnan biyopsilerde sonuca ulaþýlamamýþtýr. Boyunda kitle þikayeti ile tekrar baþvuran hastanýn BT ile deðerlendirilmesinde laringomukosel tespit edilmiþ olup eksternal yaklaþýmla tedavi edilmiþtir. Bu makalede seyrek görülen ve tanýsý açýsýndan ilginç bulduðumuz bir laringomukosel olgusu literatür bilgileri de gözden geçirilerek sunulmuþtur.

MIX TYPE LARYNGOMUCOCELE

Laryngoceles are defined as a dilation of the laryngeal ventricular saccule, which is filled with air. This is an uncommon entity. If it contains mucus then it is defined as "laryngomucocele". It should be on mind especially in patients with neck masses and hoarseness. A malignant process was thought on a patient admitted to our department with respiratuar distress. Tracheotomy was performed and multiple biopsies were taken. Biopsy results were negative for malignancy. After 10 months the patient readmitted with neck mass. A computed tomographic scan was performed, which demonstrated a laryngomucocele. An external approach was undertaken to excise the mass. In this paper, one case whose clinical history was interesting is presented with reviewing of the literature.
