Laryngeal cleft is a rare congenital malformation that affects the separation between the airway and the esophagus, allowing food or liquid to enter the lungs and cause respiratory problems. This condition can be diagnosed by radiological imaging or endoscopic evaluation, and may require surgical repair or management of the associated complications. However, the term "laryngeal cleft" may not be familiar or clear to everyone, especially patients or caregivers who are not medical experts. Therefore, it may be helpful to provide some synonyms or alternative names for laryngeal cleft, such as laryngotracheoesophageal cleft, laryngopharyngeal cleft, laryngocele, or pharyngoesophageal diverticulum.
