Plasma cell mucositis of the larynx.

Stridor is a symptom with a number of causes, usually identified through careful history taking and examination. When the cause is unclear, as in our case, consider investigations such as blood tests, biopsy, and imaging. We discuss a rare diagnosis of plasma cell mucositis, treated with some success by steroids.

Diagnosis and management of conductive hearing loss in children with trisomy 21.

Anti-tumour necrosis factor therapy is associated with certain subtypes of chronic rhinosinusitis.
