Abstract
A saccular cyst is a mucous-filled dilatation of the laryngeal saccule which can be congenital or acquired. The management of these cysts has changed over the period of time. An adult patient was presented with hoarseness of voice. Videolaryngoscopy showed a well-defined pedunculated mass. Endoscopic-guided excision of the cyst was done. Histopathology showed features of saccular cyst of larynx. Laryngeal saccular cyst should be excised to relieve voice change, respiratory obstruction and for possible carcinomatous change. This article aims at management of saccular cyst along with review of literature.
