Conceitualmente a laringoscopia é um procedimento de visualização da laringe por meios diretos ou indiretos, fazendo uso do laringoscópio. Ao longo dos tempos várias foram as tentativas no sentido de criar um instrumento para estudar a laringe, com o intuito de possibilitar o diagnóstico e tratamento das doen-ças do referido órgão. Após numerosas experiências fracassadas há quem considere ser o espanhol Manuel Garcia, cantor e estudioso da voz e da laringe o criador da especiali-dade médica de laringologia, com a invenção do aparelho denominado laringoscópio, em 1854.
O trabalho que se apresenta resulta de uma revisão bibliográfica acerca da história e desenvolvimento da laringoscopia direta e indireta que pretende reunir informação rele-vante desde as invenções, experimentações e adaptações de métodos que foram previa-mente usados pelos antecessores de Garcia até à atualidade, aludindo aos vários atores que contribuíram para a narrativa da laringoscopia.

After numerous failed experiments there are those who consider the Spanish Ma-nuel Garcia, singer and scholar of voice and the larynx, the creator of the medical spe-cialty of laryngology, with the invention of the device called laryngoscope in 1854. The present work results from a bibliographical review about the history and devel-opment of direct and indirect laryngoscopy that intends to gather relevant information from the inventions, experimentations and adaptations of methods that were previously used by Garcia's predecessors up to now, alluding to the various actors which contribut-ed to the narrative of laryngoscopy.
