Abstract
Thirty-two cases of epiglottic cysts were treated surgically with direct laryngoscopy between January 1984 and December 1994. Nineteen cases were epidermoid cyst, 8 were retention cyst, one was branchial cyst, and 4 were idiopathic. Two or three cysts were found in 8 cases (7 males and 1 famale), among which 6 were epidermoid cyst, one was retention cyst, and one was unconfirmed. The literature regarding epiglottic cysts is reviewed.
