TUBERCULAR LARYNGITIS

Tubercular laryngitis is seldom found in infants and is rare even in later childhood. Usually pulmonary tuberculosis develops later; by some it is considered to be always associated with it. There is cough and hoarseness with aphonia, expectoration of mucopurulent or in some instances bloody character. Microscopic examination of the sputum reveals the tubercle bacilli. Results are obtained under adjustments, providing a sufficient amount of time is allowed to permit Innate to overcome the momentum and rebuild the structures that have been destroyed.
