Bacterial species isolated from chronic laryngitis cultures. Culture results demonstrated a predominance of Methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus as the causative organism for chronic laryngitis (12/15). Serratia marcescens was isolated from 2 cultures while Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus were each isolated from 1 out of 15 cultures. One culture demonstrated only “normal respiratory flora” despite the larynx having the characteristic appearance of chronic bacterial laryngitis.
