Sarcoidosis is a multiorgan granulomatous disease of unknown pathogenesis, which may involve any region of the human organs. It most commonly affects the lymph nodes in the chest, lung, eye, and skin. Although involvement of structures within the head and neck region has been well documented in the literature, isolated laryngeal sarcoidosis is rare. A 57-year-old woman presented discomfort of her throat. We found edematization of the epiglottis with no other abnormalities. Based on the results of a biopsy and diagnosis by exclusion we concluded that this case might be isolated laryngeal sarcoidosis. The patient responded well to treatment with low-dose prednisolone without recurrence.
