Blephariglottis

/ˌblɛfərɪˈɡlɒtɪs/ noun

A rare anatomical variation where eyelid-like tissue develops on or near the vocal cords or throat.

From Greek 'blepharon' (eyelid) + 'glottis' (vocal cords). This fantastical-sounding term names a condition so rare that medical literature on it is minimal.
