  • Title: Operative treatment and postoperative management of saccular cyst and laryngocele.
    Author: Booth JB, Birck HG.
    Journal: Arch Otolaryngol; 1981 Aug; 107(8):500-2. PubMed ID: 7247823.
    Abstract:
    We describe two infants with respiratory difficulty. The respiratory difficulty in one infant was secondary to a lateral saccular cyst, and the other infant had a laryngocele. Surgical treatment was marsupialization of the lesion. Postoperatively, a polyethylene endotracheal tube was left in place for three days to serve as a postoperative airway and also as a stent. With this procedure, we were able to avoid tracheostomy and recurrence of disease.
