Organophosphates are used as herbicides. Glyphosate is one of the acidic organophosphate solution of pH4.8-6. We experienced a case of laryngeal injury after glyphosate caustic ingestion. He had a mild respiratory distress, and a laryngeal granuloma was observed in endoscopy. He received treatment with oral steroid and PPI for two weeks, the laryngeal granuloma and respiratory distress were nearly disappeared. Therefore, we expect this case report to be helpful the therapeutic formulations in the damage of larynx due to glyphosate.
