[Isolated laryngeal involvement as the first manifestation of Wegener's disease. A case report].

: A 74-year-old woman with a 4-month history of hoarseness had a granulomatous lesion of the vocal cords by laryngoscopy and a normal physical examination. Wegener's granulomatosis was confirmed by biopsy. Early treatment with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole prevented the evolution toward a more severe systemic form of the disease. The patient remains asymptomatic a year and a half after treatment.
