A laryngocele associated with squamo us cell carcinoma of the larynx is reported in a 20-yea r-old man without a history of smoking. This is the youngest reported case of carcinoma associated with laryngocele in the literature. This association is supported by the patient's young age and his nonsmoking status. However, this case does not appear to support the conclusion that laryngoceles predispose to the development of squamous cell carcinoma. The clinical history supports the tumor obstruction theory, whereby a laryngocele developed from an obstructing carcinoma of the ventricle.
