title: [Diagnosis of acute pharyngitis].
abstract: The diagnosis of acute pharyngitis relies on a good analysis of its signs and symptoms, one of the objectives of this thorough clinical study being to differentiate between pharyngitis as a symptom and as a disease. Establishing correlations between the clinical diagnosis of acute pharyngitis and a tentative microbiological diagnosis facilitates the first-line treatment.
