Abstract

<p>The lesions of pemphigus in the larynx have been reported as case reports. However, the frequency with which it occurs is not known. The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence of laryngeal involvement in pemphigus vulgaris and to examine the laryngeal lesions and the treatment in detail. The databases searched were PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library and Google scholar. The involvement of larynx in patients with pemphigus vulgaris is common. The most common parts involved are epiglottis and arytenoids. This study indicates that laryngeal symptoms are common in pemphigus vulgaris. Laryngeal findings must be considered at the beginning of diagnosis for the better management and to prevent life threatening complications.</p>
