AB  - BACKGROUND: Chronic hoarseness, globus sensation or mucous obstruction are among 
      a wide range of symptoms possibly related to laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR). 
      METHOD AND RESULTS: A selective literature research was carried out using PubMed, 
      in which original articles and reviews in German and English were included. 
      Altogether, 2541 articles were found. Despite the large number of publications, 
      there are still open questions regarding aspects of LPR. DISCUSSION: It can be 
      assumed that refluxate reaching the larynx can damage it. Due to the fact that 
      the symptoms possibly related to LPR can, however, be linked to other causes, a 
      careful consideration of the patient's medical history is of the utmost 
      importance, followed by mandatory laryngoscopy. Diagnostic procedures, such as 
      the trial administration of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) or long-term pH 
      measurement should be used selectively. Depending on the individual symptoms, 
      breathing or voice therapy and/or PPI therapy might be useful. Lifestyle changes 
      including dietary measures should also be contemplated.
