The laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD) is a general term for a series of symptoms and signs caused by reflux of the stomach contents to the upper part of the esophageal sphincter. In recent years, the laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) is getting more and more attention as laryngeal precancerous lesions and risk factors of laryngeal cancer.
