Abstract

Laryngopharyngeal reflux has been recognized since 2006 (Montreal Consensus) as an extradigestive manifestation of gastroesophageal reflux disease. However, despite numerous research studies, the relationship between these two pathologies is yet to be fully understood. The aim of this paper is to review the literature of the last five years available via the PubMed database, looking at the controversies about the prevalence, pathophysiology and diagnosis of laryngopharyngeal reflux.
