Abstract

We report a rare case of tracheocele presenting in an ENT setting. The referral was made on the basis of intermittent dysphonia. The aim of this report is to document the rare condition of tracheocele on the right side and to help raise the level of its awareness among the otolaryngologists. So far approximately thirty cases of this condition have been documented in the literature worldwide. An emphasis is placed on the mode of presentation and the management issues, as early diagnosis is crucial and offers a favorable prognosis. The right sided predilection of the swelling is due to anatomical reason and the cause of recurrent dysphonia is explained.
