Abstract:
Sarcoidosis is a disease of unknown etiology characterized by non-caseating granulomatous inflammation of various organs, but most frequently involving the lungs of young adults. Sarcoidosis is seldom seen by ear, nose, throat and larynx. The isolated case of sarcoidosis of the larynx is very rare. We present a case of histologically confirmed sarcoidosis of the vocal cord. The clinical aspects, diagnostic problems and therapeutical possibilities of this rare disease are described.
