A case of mixed type laryngocele presented with deep neck infection and review of the literature
Laringosel, laringeal ventrikül sakkülünün hava ile anormal genişlemesi olup tirohyoid membrandan boyun cilt altı dokulara uzanabilir veya larinks içinde sınırlı kalabilir. Etiyolojisi net değildir. Laringosellerin birçoğu asemptomatiktir. Asemptomatik laringosel çok büyüdüğünde veya enfekte olduğunda belirginleşir ve semptomlar ortaya çıkar. Bu yazıda 20 yıldır boyunda asemptomatik şişliği olan, bu zamana kadar herhangi bir şikayeti olmamasına rağmen şimdi derin boyun enfeksiyonu, ses kısıklığı ve solunum sıkıntısı şikayetleri ile başvuran 40 yaşındaki bayan bir olgu sunulmuştur.
Derin boyun enfeksiyonu ile bulgu veren mikst tip laringosel olgusu ve literatür değerlendirmesi
Laryngocele is an abnormal dilatation of the laryngeal ventricular saccule that may extend into the subcutaneous tissues of the neck through the thyrohyoid membrane or confined to the endolarynx. The etiology is still unclear. Many laryngoceles are asymptomatic. An asymptomatic laryngocele appears and produces symptoms only as it enlarges or when it becomes infected. In this report, we present a 40-year-old female patient, which had an asymptomatic neck swelling for 20 years, referred for deep neck infection, dysphonia and dyspnea.
