[Laryngeal actinomycosis].
Actinomycosis is a rare infectious disease in our practice and clinically it is charactherized by the presence of granulomatous lesions of subacute or chronic evolution. Most of the cases of actinomycosis are localised in the cervico-facial area, being the laryngeal one uncommon. We present a clinical case of a 53 years-old male diagnosed of primary laryngeal actinomycosis and we realise a bibliographic revision on this subject emphazising the diagnosis techniques and the differential diagnosis of this kind of lesions.
