A 45-year-old mentally retarded woman was discovered to produce a stridor upon inhalation. Fiberoptic laryngoscopic study revealed a smooth-surfaced, wide, and pedunculated tumor on the right arytenoid and the right aryepiglottic fold. Histopathological study revealed that the tumor was characterized by granulomatous inflammation. The condition was diagnosed as laryngeal sarcoidosis. The tumor was resected surgically. Surgical resection of the tumor and injection of corticosteroid should be performed for polypoid-type laryngeal sarcoidosis. The case is discussed in detail, along with a review of the literature pertaining to sarcoidosis of the larynx.

Dyspnea is a common and important symptom. A small number of categories of disease cause the majority of cases, but the full differential diagnosis is vast. Given the large number of potential causes and the many possible diagnostic tests, an organized approach to the workup of dyspnea is crucial. This article outlines the spectrum of potential causes of dyspnea, the relative use of various diagnostic tests, and suggests a tiered approach to diagnosis.
