We encountered a rare case of arytenoid abscess secondary to acute epiglottitis. A 63-year-old man was referred to our hospital with a 3-day history of sore throat and a 4-hour history of difficulty in breathing. Flexible laryngoscopy demonstrated severe swelling of the arytenoid region with redness and swelling of the epiglottis. Computed tomography demonstrated a low density area showing a contrast effect in the arytenoid region. This case was diagnosed as having arytenoid abscess secondary to acute epiglottitis. Immediate airway intervention and surgical drainage were performed. A tracheotomy was performed following tracheal intubation by the anesthetist. Surgical drainage was performed under microscopy. Postoperatively, the patient was treated in the intensive care unit. Fortunately, all of the clinical symptoms improved postoperatively. Thirteen days postoperatively, the patient was returned to the previous hospital. When we encounter a case of epiglottitis with swelling of the arytenoids, it is important to consider the possibility of airway intervention or abscess formation requiring drainage.
