Clinical manifestations and pathogenesis of tonsillar focal diseases: IgA nephropathy and palmoplantar pustulosis
Abstract
Tonsillar focal disease is defined as clinical disorders in the distant organ from the tonsil that are caused by the tonsils without any symptoms of the tonsil itself. Palmoplantar pustulosis and IgA nephropathy are known typical tonsillar focal diseases. In this paper, the clinical outcome of tonsillectomy and the etiological evidence of related diseases are reviewed.
