Perceptual Evaluation

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects on voice quality of augmentation by injection of minced fascia in patients with unilateral vocal fold paralysis. Preoperative and postoperative voice samples from 14 patients (6 men and 8 women; mean age, 59 years) were analyzed by computerized acoustic analysis and blinded perceptual evaluation. Statistically significant improvements were seen in perturbation measurements (jitter and shimmer), noise-to-harmonics ratio, and maximum phonation time. A panel of evaluators rated 10 of the 14 postoperative voices as normal or near-normal. Injection laryngoplasty with minced fascia offers a new, effective, well-tolerated, and inexpensive method to medialize a paralyzed vocal fold. The graft seems to survive well, as indicated by good vocal results with a follow-up ranging from 5 to 32 months.

Medialization Laryngoplasty

ABSTRACT Objective Medialization laryngoplasty (formally type 1 thyroplasty) is an accepted treatment for unilateral vocal fold paralysis or paresis. The objective of this paper is to ascertain the complications following medialization laryngoplasty in patients with particular reference to implant extrusion. Study design The records of 85 patients who underwent medialization laryngoplasty were retrospectively reviewed from January 2001 to July 2009. Results There were 3 implant extrusions noted only in female patients with cartilage removal technique. Conclusions Implant extrusion rate following medialization laryngoplasty in our institution is comparable to published literature.
