Six weeks later, the patient was admitted as an emergency with a three-day history of increasing dyspnoea and stridor. Neck examination revealed a large, right-sided, soft neck mass, centred at level III, measuring approximately 10\u00a0\u00d7\u00a05\u00a0cm. Fibre-optic laryngoscopy revealed a large, smooth, inflamed, right supraglottic mass obscuring the laryngeal inlet. The patient was taken directly to the radiology department, where ultrasound imaging confirmed a laryngopyocoele. Under ultrasound guidance, a 21-G needle was directed into the cyst and 30\u00a0ml of pus was aspirated. The dysphonia and stridor resolved immediately. Six weeks later, the patient underwent definitive surgical excision of the laryngocoele.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0022215108002417_sec3\"><jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Laryngopyocoele is a rare diagnosis. It can present as an acute airway emergency.
