Abstract
Abstract This study aimed to review the current literature on connective tissue disorders from a surgical standpoint. The Medline database was used to collect papers and reviews on the subject and it included only studies that were written in the English language. These papers were then read and written in a narrative - style pertinent review. The findings reveal that connective tissue disorders are a group of diseases that affect all components of the connective tissue, with various systemic manifestations , and their otolaryngologic manifestations are often similar and confusing. This article provides a comprehensive literature review of the otolaryngologic manifestations of connective tissue diseases, including their prevalence, diagnosis, and treatment. In conclusion, the otolaryngologist should be able to recognize these manifestations as indications of a systemic disease and use the information provided to determine the most appropriate evaluation and treatment.
