We encountered a case of hyoid bone elongation characterized by a clicking sound on swallowing. A 32-year-old man complained of a foreign body sensation and painless clicking sound on the left side of his neck when swallowing. CT scan of the neck revealed that the left greater cornu of the hyoid bone was elongated. Both greater cornu were surgically removed, and his symptoms disappeared.
