A foreign body of a staple in the airway has been reported only as a bronchial foreign body and the method of its removal has been investigated in the literature. But no case of a staple in the larynx has been reported. Recently, we experienced a case of a staple fixed into the glottis. The patient was a 1-year and 8-month-old boy. We used suspension laryngoscope under general anesthesia from tracheostoma and could successfully remove it utilizing two forceps held by both hands. We reported this case and discussed the laryngeal foreign body.
