Abstract
Laryngeal tuberculosis is exceptional and identification in this localization can reveal clinically unrecognized pulmonary tuberculosis. We report two cases illustrating this situation. The pseudo-tumor aspect observed at endoscopy may be wrongly suggestive of neoplasia. Bacteriological examination provides the diagnosis. New methods of genomic diagnosis (Gen-Probe) and culture now allow particularly rapid diagnosis. Outcome is always favorable with standard anti-tuberculosis treatment.
