Visualization of the larynx and vocal cords for signs of laryngopharyngeal reflux
(LPR) requires a laryngoscopic examination. The most useful signs of GERDrelated laryngitis or laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) were reported to be erythema,
edema, presence of posterior commissure bar, and cobblestoning, while
pseudosulcus vocalis; ulcers; and ventricular obliteration, nodules, polyps, and
leukoplakia were reported to be less useful.[12]
Pseudosulcus vocalis (see below) was shown to be reported in as many as 90% of
laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) cases. In a separate study, pseudosulcus was
show to have a 70% sensitivity and 77% specificity in patients with
laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR). This further supports that the presence of
pseudosulcus vocalis is suggestive of laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR).[13]
Helicobacter pylori bacteria could enter and colonize the nasopharyngeal cavity by
gastroesophageal reflux and may elicit otitis, sinusitis, pharyngitis, or laryngitis.
Belfasky et al (2002) developed an 8-item clinical severity scale to document
laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) findings during fiberoptic laryngoscopy, which are
quantified as the reflux finding score (RFS; as seen in the image below). The
following 8 items are assessed to aid in the diagnosis of laryngopharyngeal reflux
(LPR):
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
Pseudosulcus vocalis
Ventricular obliteration
Erythema/hyperemia
Vocal fold edema
Diffuse laryngeal edema
Posterior commissure hypertrophy
Granuloma/granulation
Thick endolaryngeal mucus
The image below describes the reflux finding score in more detail.
The reflux finding score (RFS) documents the presence and degree of eight laryngopharyngeal
reflux (LPR) findings during fiberoptic laryngoscopy; maximum score: 26.
