Laryngeal stenosis is a permanent, usually acquired, narrowing of the laryngeal duct. Due to the pandemic of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), the etiology of tuberculosis must be investigated. However, the signs of presumption are not specific. Management is controversial and remains difficult in our work context in an under-medicated country south of the Sahara. The purpose of the work is to report a case of laryngeal stenosis secondary to multifocal tuberculosis to discuss the difficulties associated with its management. This was a 35-year-old smoking patient with 25 packs / year. Admitted on 04/12/2017 to the ENT and Head and Neck Surgery Department for assessment of dysphonia associated with unencrypted slimming. The performed laryngoscopy showed disseminated ulceration of the laryngeal margin, and the histology showed granulomatous laryngitis. The intradermal reaction to tuberculin measured 10 mm. A chest X-ray performed on the face showed a chronic interstitial-bronchial syndrom. The diagnosis of laryngeal tuberculosis secondary to a pulmonary focus was retained. The course was marked by the sudden onset of laryngeal dyspnea requiring urgent tracheotomy. Postoperative examination of the larynx revealed synechia of the larynx. Anti-tuberculosis therapy for six months has resulted in favourable outcomes. However, it was noted a complication type laryngeal stenosis despite the attempted re-stabilization with impossibility to decant the patient. Laryngeal stenosis secondary to multifocal tuberculosis remains a rare and dreadful pathology. Therapeutic success depends on early and adequate management.
