Laryngeal Tuberculosis

Abstract

Although laryngeal tuberculosis cases are decreasing in number the disease is still encountered with hoarseness and painful swallowing. Although it is associated with a complication of lung tuberculosis, sometimes it occurs without any complication. A differential diagnosis of the disease, which is sometimes encountered with diseases like laryngeal carcinoma and other granulomatous diseases, is important.
