AbstractTeflon injection has been widely used for the treatment of unilateral vocal fold paralysis. Complications are few and infrequent. Overinjection and Teflon granuloma are the two commonest problems encountered. Treating such complications and restoring vocal quality is widely regarded as difficult. Endoscopic transmucosal excision of the excess Teflon and/or granuloma has not been successful in improving phonatory quality. Cordectomy is proposed as an alternative surgical approach for managing both the convex vocal fold and Teflon granuloma after injection.
