Laryngocele is a rare lesion of the larynx. When it presents as the internal subtype, its anatomical behaviour and position determine the surgical approach required.
Internal laryngoceles expand medially to the thyroid hyoid membrane, distinguishing them from combined forms that extend both medially and laterally. Correct classification of the lesion as internal is central to selecting the appropriate management path.
The established approach involves open surgical resection. The full structured protocol — including which specific access route is indicated and how the procedure is sequenced — is available via the link below.
