Polyps are common lesions in pharynx and larynx. A 46-year-old woman was transferred to our department because of the huge pharyngeal mass that was incidentally detected during routine health screening. On laryngoscopic exam, the airway was not visualized due to the mass but she had no symptom such as hoarseness, dy​s​phagia and dyspnea. Awake intubation was safely performed using flexible bronchoscope without tracheostomy. A 4 cm sized mass on​ the​ left aryepiglottic fold was ​transorally removed and discharged without complication. The pathologic diagnosis was reported as 'Giant Polyp'. Herein, we describe a case of huge giant polyp on​ aryepiglottic fold, which has not been reported in the English literature.
