Case description: We present a case of a 45-year-old man who initially presented with an isolated lesion in the aryepiglottic fold which was biopsied and diagnosed as a syphilitic lesion. [aijoc.com]

Abstract The case of a 73-year-old lady with late congenital pharyngo-laryngeal syphilis is presented. Its finding was at a potentially difficult intubation during the induction of general anaesthesia. [cambridge.org]

• Hoarseness

  “Hoarseness is a symptom of utmost significance and calls for a separate consideration as a subject because of the frequency of its occurrence as a distant signal of malignancy and other conditions” Chevalier Jackson Causes of hoarseness of voice: Inflammatory [sites.google.com]

  Hoarseness is a harsh, rough, raspy quality to the voice. Hoarseness is generally caused by irritation of, or injury to, the vocal cords. This trauma to the vocal cords leads to a change in the pitch of the voice. [medicinenet.com]

  Abstract A 51-year-old male consulted our clinic complaining of hoarseness. The typical cutaneous sign (split papule) was observed as well as pharyngo-laryngitis. The serological test was immediately tried, and secondary syphilis was diagonsed. [jstage.jst.go.jp]

  Microlaryngoscopy with biopsy of the interior of the larynx is now a frequent procedure in the diagnosis of laryngeal disease. [books.google.com]

  The final diagnosis was laryngeal syphilis. Pros and Cons Evaluation of Disease of Uncertain Etiology Inflammatory disease limited to the larynx may mimic the initial presentation of laryngeal cancer ( Figs. 204.1 – 204.3 ). [radiologykey.com]

  This dispensary grew, became famous, and eventually was moved to larger quarters, becoming the Hospital for Diseases of the Throat. It was the first specialized facility for the diagnosis and treatment of laryngeal diseases. [emerituscollege.asu.edu]

• Expiratory Stridor

  Expiratory stridor is rare in laryngeal stenosis, while it is charac teristic of traeheal stenosis. The head is bent forward in tracheal ste nosis. [gluedideas.com]

Despite adequate medical treatment, he progressively developed a bilateral vocal fold immobility requiring tracheostomy, and subsequently a laser posterior cordectomy for definitive treatment. [aijoc.com]

She was asymptomatic; there was no evidence of active disease on either clinical examination or serology and no treatment was required. However, it is important to differentiate this condition from others which may require treatment. [cambridge.org]

Rarely, in severe infections such as those with herpes viruses, laryngeal erosion and necrosis may occur. [ 1 ] Prognosis In acute laryngitis, the prognosis is usually excellent. [patient.info]

The prognosis depends upon the underlying disease, but is serious in every case, because there may be danger to life. The pronosis is most favorable in syphilitic cases. A chronic hoarseness and stenosis must always be considered. Treatment. [gluedideas.com]

The condition is a very grave one; the prognosis depends largely on the associated pulmonary infection - if that be extensive, a very small amount of laryngeal mischief resists treatment, while, if the case be the contrary, a very extensive mischief may [theodora.com]

Any condition, regardless of etiology, that is suspicious for deep infiltration or cancer should be studied primarily with CT if imaging is desired as part of the evaluation. [radiologykey.com]

Epidemiology Accurate figures regarding acute laryngitis are not available, as the condition often goes unreported. [patient.info]

Post-surgical intervention is warranted to restore laryngeal muscle strength, agility and coordination. [20] Epidemiology [ edit ] Due to the complex and controversial nature of this condition, [3] epidemiological (incidence) reports vary significantly [en.wikipedia.org]

This suggests that differences in pathophysiology between LPR and GERD patients are part of the basis for the contrasting symptomology. [nature.com]

Laryngeal manifestations are rare, particularly as a sole presentation, and can result from different pathophysiologic mechanisms, such as direct damage to the vocal folds and cartilages, subglottic stenosis, vagal or recurrent laryngeal nerve neuropathy [aijoc.com]

Pathophysiology and Patterns of Disease Epiglottitis/supraglottitis causes severe mucosal disease in the supraglottis with secondary edema that spreads freely within the loose spaces of the supraglottis. [radiologykey.com]

The basic pathophysiology is inflammation of the mucosa lining the vocal folds and larynx. If infection is involved, white cells aggregate to remove infectious material from the area. [patient.info]

Cricoid necrosis as the last phase of pathological changes on the cricoid cartilage can cause serious pathophysiological disturbances ( Gatland, 1988 ). [intechopen.com]
