Laryngeal Manifestations of Bullous Pemphigoid: Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune blistering disease that affects primarily the skin and rarely involves the mucosa of the oral cavity, larynx, pharynx, or esophagus. Diagnosis is based on the clinical presentation, histology, and immunopathological examination. Laryngeal involvement in BP is extremely rare and patients may be asymptomatic or may present with dysphonia, dysphagia, and/or respiratory distress. The authors of this article report a rare case of BP with laryngeal involvement with a review of the literature. Early diagnosis and initiation of treatment is highly recommended to prevent any long-term complications.
