Hypopharyngeal mass is an uncommon condition in the aerodigestive tract. There were only a few cases have been published in the medical literature. We experienced a case of incidentally detected hypopharyngeal mass during endotracheal intubation. Hypopharyngeal mass was located at the right posterior pharyngeal wall. The hypopharyngeal mass was small and not obstruct the glottis, and endotracheal intubation was performed successfully.
