Conclusions
The consequences of ENT manifestations of sarcoidosis can be
uncomfortable, disabling and disfiguring and those affecting the larynx
can be life threatening (10, 20). The coordinated management of these
requires good diagnostic skills and multimodal treatment. Established
treatments using corticosteroids are observed to be effective but not
without risks of long-term use. Intralesional treatments are commonly
reported and surgical excision of tissue may be necessary.
For clinical care to evolve and improve, it is vital for affected
patients to be managed using all the resources available to the
multidisciplinary team and that outcomes are studied and recorded so as
to establish best practice in this area.
