Tuberculosis

In the non-cicatricial forms, galvanocaustic

puncture applied through the direct laryngoscope will usually reduce

the infiltrations sufficiently to provide a free airway. Should the

pulmonary and laryngeal tuberculosis be fortunately cured, leaving,

however, a cicatricial stenosis of the larynx, decannulation may be

accomplished by laryngostomy.
