A member asked:
How do you pronounce 'laryngopharyngeal' please? & can laryngopharyngeal reflux cause cholesteatoma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cholesteatoma: Its pronounced exactly as you would read it. No, refluxing your gastric content into your pharynx and larynx have absolutely nothing to do with developing keratinizing epidermal growth in the middle ear.
