Klinik sunumları farklı üç olguda larenks kistleri

Larenks kistleri sık görülürler ve hava yolunu tehlike- ye sokabilme özellikle yönünden önem taflırlar. Ko- nuflma, yutma ve solunum, üst aerodigestif sistem tarafından sağlanan temel fonksiyonlardandır. Bu yazıda, larenks kisti saptanan üç farklı olguda bu fonksiyonların ayrı ayrı nasıl etkilendiği sunuldu; bu olgularda çakıflan bulgular da vardı. Bafllangıç su- numları olarak tüm olgularda yanıltıcı bulgulara rast- landı; boğazda yabancı cisim duyusu olgu 1 , ağır- laflan astım tablosu olgu 2 ve seste güç kaybı ol- gu 3 . Sunulan olgular aracılığıyla, bafllangıç semp- tomlarının yanıltıcı nitelikleri vurgulandı; özellikleri açısından benign olan, ancak etkileri nedeniyle tanı ve tedavide sorunlara yol açabilen larenks kistlerine karflı daha uyanık olunması gerektiği gösterildi

Laryngeal cysts: a report of three cases with varying presentations

Cysts in the larynx are not uncommon and assume importance due to their potential to compromise the airway. A series of three cases of laryngeal cysts is presented. Voice, swallowing, and breathing are the prime functions served by the upper aerodigestive tract, and the three cases presented here illustrate how each of these functions can be interfered with by the development of laryngeal cysts. Despite the presence of overlapping symptoms, there were only subtle symptoms at the onset such as globus sensation case 1 , worsening asthma case 2 , and vocal fatigue case 3 . This case series highlights the importance of understanding these subtle symp toms and the need for a thorough search for these benign but offending laryngeal cysts.
