Adult hypopharyngeal haemangioma is an uncommon neoplasm. We present three cases of adult hypopharyngeal haemangioma which were successfully treated with a neodymium: yttrium-aluminium-garnet (Nd: YAG) laser in our hospital between 2000 and 2003. The patients in this series experienced no untoward events from the use of the laser. Excessive bleeding and airway problems were not encountered. Postoperative pain was minimal. Excellent long-term function and a full resolution of symptoms can be obtained using Nd: YAG laser. The laser provides a bloodless field and complete healing of the hypopharynx, without stenosis or scar formation.
