Hairy polyp is a rare congenital anomaly, pharynx mass, that causes respiratory and swallowing disorders, and sometimes threatens child’s life. A 6 mounths old girl with this pathology was examined and surgically treated at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Pediatric Faculty, N.I. Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University. Epipharingoscopy and computed tomography (CT scan) were used during diagnosis. The surgery was performed under endotracheal anesthesia using ERBE VIO electrosurgical complex.
