Every year, at the turn of spring and summer, there are more patients with acute epiglottitis. Most acute epiglottitis has a rapid onset, with a time frame ranging from a few hours to a few days. Many patients start with sore throat, which is progressively worse, and after taking symptomatic medications, it is not effective and is accompanied by dysphagia and painful swallowing. At the time of the hospital visit, a fiberoptic laryngoscopy revealed congestion and swelling of the epiglottis. When the epiglottis is swollen, it can cover the voice box, causing breathing difficulties and even asphyxia. Acute epiglottitis is one of the most common emergencies in otolaryngology and should be treated urgently without delay once detected.
