Aspectos actuales de la tuberculosis laríngea

: In the preantibiotic era laryngeal tuberculosis was the most frequent pathology of the larynx. In the last decades some changes in the presentation and evolution of the pathology have occurred due to the new chemiotherapy and the improvement of the nutrition. Actually it presents less incidence and infectivity and less evidence of pulmonary disease. In this article we analyse, on occasion of a clinical case and with a revision of the literature, the actual patterns of the laryngeal tuberculosis.
