Very, very, very rarely, yes.
But most people would not believe that. The first writer said: the probability of someone dying from Laryngitis is about 0.01%.. Believe me.. Laryngitis is an inflammation in your larynx, typically resulting in huskiness or loss of voice.. I don't think that laryngitis can kill you, otherwise people all over the world would be dead right now, including some of the world's best singers.. Theoretically speaking of course.. You have to think about this, Laryngitis can't do anything to your larynx but cause it to inflame and cut down your voice a little. I'd expect nothing more of it. It's just like the common cold. No worries. (sic)
This information might not be too comforting to the hale and healthy man in Wales whose widow probably believed the same thing. So did he. He's dead, and yes, his laryngitis killed him. It's rare, but it can happen.
Here's how: Because the same passageway through which we produce voice sounds is that through which we breathe. In some cases of laryngitis, breathing becomes so obstructed by the swelling of the vocal cords that it is not possible to obtain sufficient oxygen; this rare result is called hypoxia from Acute Respiratory Distress Disorder. A good example of this type of laryngitis is that resulting from smoke inhalation during a structure fire. If you are ever exposed to smoke inhalation, get to the hospital ED even if you feel all right, because ARDS can develop very suddenly hours after the exposure!
