ABSTRACT

Laryngeal tuberculosis is one of the most common extra-pulmonary manifestations of tuberculosis. But, the subglottis is a site rarely involved in laryngeal tuberculosis. Moreover, laryngeal tuberculosis is similar to either chronic laryngitis or laryngeal carcinoma. To make the diagnosis of laryngeal tuberculosis early, a high index of suspicion and biopsy are necessary. We present, with the appropriate review, a case of glottic tuberculosis extending to subglottis. (J Clinical Otolaryngol 2008;19:130–132)
