Laryngeal lymphoid follicular hyperplasia

Introduction

Introduction Lymphoid follicular hyperplasia in the larynx is considered chronic pharyngitis. Lymphoid follicles are the lymphoid tissues of the human body. The tonsils, proliferative bodies, etc. of the pharynx are all lymphoid tissues. Under normal circumstances, lymphoid follicles are not obvious, and when there is chronic inflammation in the pharynx, hyperplasia and hypertrophy occur, which is the lymphocystosis that is often said in clinical practice. Mainly seen in patients with low immunity and easy to catch a cold. There are also elderly patients and children. Due to the slow development of the disease course and the concealed lesions, it is often difficult to confirm the diagnosis at an early stage.

Lymphoid follicular hyperplasia in the throat should be considered as chronic pharyngitis. Lymphoid follicles are the lymphoid tissues of the human body. The tonsils, proliferative bodies, etc. of the pharynx are all lymphoid tissues.

Due to the slow development of the disease course and the concealed lesions, it is often difficult to confirm the diagnosis at an early stage. According to the clinical manifestations, the pharynx was carefully examined, and patients with pharyngeal reverse sensitivity or inability to cooperate with the examination were examined by fiberoptic nasopharyngoscopy. Perform biopsy if necessary to confirm the diagnosis and queue up for nasopharyngeal tumors. X-ray film and brain CT or magnetic resonance imaging are helpful for differential diagnosis. Nasopharyngeal dry discomfort, sticky thick secretions are not easy to cough up, so patients often cough frequently with nausea. Severe cases have systemic or local symptoms such as hoarseness, sore throat, headache, dizziness, fatigue, indigestion, and low fever. Nasopharyngeal examination showed chronic hyperemia of the mucosa, hypertrophy and hypertrophy, covered with secretions or dryness.

Differential diagnosis

1. Throat enlargement: Throat enlargement is one of the symptoms of boys' voice change period.

2. Vocal cord hypertrophy: vocal cord hypertrophy, also known as chronic hypertrophic vocal cord inflammation or chronic proliferative vocal corditis, refers to the wide or local volume of vocal cords due to various factors.

3. Tonsil hyperemia: tonsil hyperemia is one of the symptoms of chronic tonsillitis, chronic tonsillitis is also known clinically, tonsillitis.
