Abstract: Objective To investigate the clinical manifestations, distinctive morphological features under laryngoscope, and diagnostic strategies of laryngeal tuberculosis in children. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of children diagnosed with laryngeal tuberculosis, supplemented by a comprehensive review of relevant literature. Results The study revealed that laryngeal tuberculosis in children often manifests with an insidious onset. While pulmonary and systemic symptoms are not typical, laryngeal symptoms are prominent. The definitive diagnosis of laryngeal tuberculosis relies on pathological examination and Mycobacterium tuberculosis test results. Fiberoptic laryngoscopy was identified as a valuable method for early detection of laryngeal tuberculosis in children. Conclusion A comprehensive understanding of the clinical features and morphological characteristics of laryngeal tuberculosis in children is crucial to prevent delays in diagnosis. Familiarity with the distinct manifestations observed through laryngoscopy can contribute to early detection and timely management of laryngeal tuberculosis in pediatric patients.
