Abstrakt: Objective: To improve the diagnosis of laryngeal disease in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
Material and Methods: 171 patients (89 (52%) men, 82 (48%) women) with non-erosive (39 (23%) people) and erosive (132 (77%) people) forms of GERD were examined. None of the patients made active complaints about the condition of the larynx and pharynx. The examination included a questionnaire, examination by an otorhinolaryngologist, and videoendolaryngoscopy.
Results: The survey revealed the presence of symptoms of otorhinolaryngological pathology in 74% of patients. Videolaryngoscopy revealed no laryngeal pathology in 55 (32%) patients, and signs of GERD-associated laryngitis were detected in 116 (68%) patients. The most common pathology was pachydermia in interarytenoid region - in 89 people, laryngeal granuloma was detected in 7 patients, leukoplakia - in 2 patients, chronic edematous polypous laryngitis - in 2 patients, benign laryngeal formations - in 9 patients. In patients with GERD (erosive and non-erosive forms), an asymptomatic course of chronic laryngitis associated with this pathology was observed in 44% of cases. In 52% of patients, pachydermia in interarytenoid region was diagnosed, of which every second had pronounced hyperplasia and folding of the mucous membrane in interarytenoid region, which must be differentiated from laryngeal cancer (in this case, patients should be under the dynamic supervision of an otorhinolaryngologist). Other precancerous formations of the larynx (granulomas and leukoplakia) were found in 5% of patients. Benign neoplasms of the larynx (polyps and cysts) were also detected in 5% of cases.
Conclusions: Despite the high frequency of detection of otorhinolaryngological diseases in the examined patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease, none of the patients presented complaints related to the pathology of the larynx, which indicates the need for active detection of this pathology in this category of patients by questioning, questioning, as well as examination by an otorhinolaryngologist.
