An unusual case of acute respiratory obstruction due to a laryngeal cyst is described. The mixed inspiratory and expiratory nature of this obstruction is discussed, and its implications for diagnosis and anaesthetic management. Alternative forms of management, especially those of transtracheal insufflation and transtracheal ventilation, and their possible complications are considered.
