•Sarcoidosis is a chronic multisystemic granulomatous disease with unknown etiology.•Sarcoidosis affects the head and neck region in only 10%-15% of cases.•Larynx with turban-like thickening should raise high suspicions of laryngeal sarcoidosis.•Sarcoidosis is diagnosed after laboratory, endoscopic, and histopathology findings exclude other differentials.•Isolated laryngeal sarcoidosis is rare, making early diagnosis challenging and rising misdiagnosis.
•结节病是一种病因不明的慢性多系统肉芽肿性疾病。
•结节病仅在10%-15%的病例中累及头颈部区域。
•出现头巾样增厚的喉部应高度怀疑为喉结节病。
•在实验室、内镜及组织病理学检查结果排除其他鉴别诊断后，方可诊断结节病。
•孤立性喉结节病罕见，这使得早期诊断具有挑战性，误诊率也较高。
