Abstract
BACKGROUND: Laryngeal involvement in inflammatory bowel disease is rare. Only 12 cases of laryngeal involvement in Crohn disease have been reported until now. Moreover, only one case of laryngeal manifestations in ulcerative colitis has been reported so far.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this article, we present a patient with ulcerative colitis, who consulted our ear, nose, and throat (ENT) clinic with laryngeal complaints. Furthermore, a review of current literature was performed.
RESULTS: A concise overview of this rare extraintestinal manifestation and other ENT manifestations of inflammatory bowel diseases is provided.
CONCLUSIONS: Laryngeal manifestations in inflammatory bowel disease are very rare, but these manifestations should be known by the otorhinolaryngologist.
