Manifestations of gastro-pharyngo-laryngeal reflux disease
Abstract
In the last few years, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease has received renewed interest from the ENT specialists. The symptomatology can vary on account of the differences between the gastro-oesophageal reflux and the laryngo-pharyngeal reflux as far as concerns both symptomatology and clinical-pathogenic aspects. The symptoms and the clinical laryngoscopic aspects are discussed.
La malattia da reflusso gastroesofageo ha ricevuto negli ultimi anni un rinnovato interesse da parte degli specialisti in ORL. La sintomatologia può essere molto varia anche perché esistono differenze dimostrate tra il reflusso gastroesofageo e quello laringofaringeo sia per la sintomatologia che per gli aspetti clinico-patogenetici. Vengono presentati i sintomi e i quadri clinici laringoscopici con cui queste affezioni si presentano.
