| Abstract | Introduction: Oncocytic cysts of the larynx are benign, uncommon, and slow-growing lesions that usually occur in elderly people, especially in those with a history of smoking and chronic irritation. These lesions cause various clinical symptoms depending on their location and size, requiring physicians to consider a wide range of symptoms. Case Presentation: Here we present two men who were referred to us because of prolonged voice hoarseness. Conclusions: Medical assessments led us to the diagnosis of oncocytic cysts in the false and true vocal cords. Both patients were followed up after removing their laryngeal cysts and have had no clinical complaints since then. | en |
