Laryngeal foreign body is very rare in sane adults. Diagnosis is mostly achieved by high index of suspicion and clinico-radiological examinations. Delayed presentation pose a high risk of complications and also presents a challenge to both otolaryngologists and anaesthiologists. Prompt intervention is all that is needed to avoid morbidity and/or mortality. We report a case of delayed and unusual presentation of impacted laryngeal foreign body in a 35 year old man presenting with unremitting hoarseness for 3 months.
