BACKGROUND: A thyroglossal duct cyst typically presents as a long-standing neck mass that becomes symptomatic when inflamed. Hoarseness is an uncommon complaint, and its association may suggest encroachment on and destruction of the larynx. Following removal of the cyst with the Sistrunk procedure, the larynx may need to be reconstructed.
METHODS: A case is reported of a patient who was initially seen with hoarseness and a long-standing midline neck mass. Computed tomography (CT) demonstrated a large cystic neck mass that eroded the thyroid cartilage and encroached on the pre-epiglottic space and right paraglottic space. Although the clinical impression was that of laryngeal neoplasm, the CT diagnosis was that of a cyst. At surgery, a thyroglossal duct cyst was found and successfully removed with the Sistrunk procedure. Because the thyrohyoid membrane and thyroid perichondrium were preserved, the glottis did not require reconstruction. This case is presented and the literature of thyroglossal duct cysts that extend into the larynx is reviewed.
CONCLUSIONS: The clinical and radiographic criteria that suggest encroachment of a thyroglossal duct cyst on the larynx are reviewed. The management and indications for laryngeal reconstruction are discussed.
