Abstract
We reported a post-SCL-CHEP complication “Inverted epiglottis”. Extensive excision of the epiglottic petiole, patients with a low vallecula profile, and incorrect suturing of epiglottic petiole during pexis are the three factors most related. Inverted epiglottis was treatable and most of the laryngeal function could be retrieved.
