[Clinical aspects of laryngopathia gravidarum].

Laryngopathia gravidarum is a rare complication during pregnancy which often is associated with pre-eclampsia. In the literature different degrees of the disease are described which range from simple hoarseness to dangerous states of extreme shortage of air. Based on several cases seen in recent years we discuss the association with pre-eclampsia and document for the first time photographically how quickly morphological and functional findings disappear after the end of pregnancy.
