Resumen

Describimos 11 enfermos con tuberculosis laríngea observados en nuestro hospital desde enero de 1990 a julio de 2000. Ocho eran varones de edad superior a los 30 años y diez fumadores importantes. El diagnóstico se realizó en una media de 43 días desde que comenzaron con las manifestaciones clínicas. Todos referían disfonía y/o disfagia y en 8 se diagnosticó tuberculosis pulmonar asociada. En 7 enfermos se aisló Mycobacterium tuberculosis en esputo. En los 8 casos que se realizó biopsia laríngea, se demostró la presencia de granulomas. Con tratamiento médico antituberculoso, la evolución fue satisfactoria en todos los casos, no habiéndose observado en ninguno clínica residual.
