We present the Urbach-Whiete-Syndrome as a rare cause of hoarseness in children. As such patients often present initially to the E.N.T. surgeon, we should like to draw attention to this autosomal recessive condition. Only symptomatic treatment is possible, and genetic counselling should be considered. The diagnosis of the disease should be as prompt as possible.
