“…We still do not know, exactly, how many reflux episodes are necessary to produce inflammatory changes and larynx lesions. Notwithstanding, studies such as the ones from Delahunty & Cherry in 1968 41 and Koufman in 1991 14 showed that the attack of chloric acid and pepsin on the laryngeal mucosa of dogs caused contact granulomas in the first study, and subglotic stenosis in the second study, after some weeks. The role of non-acid substances, such as bile and pancreatic secretions, in causing larynx lesions is still controversial because we still lack broadly available techniques to clinically measure it 33,42 .…”

How ever, we should not overlook the possibility that the two disorders -abnormal gastroesophageal reflux and laryn geal symptoms -are not causatively related but merely represent the coincidental occurrence of two common problems.…”
