Congenital bilateral vocal fold paralysis (BVFP) is the second most common cause of stridor in neonates. Etiologies of BVFP include neurologic, cardiopulmonary malformations, iatrogenic, traumatic, and idiopathic. One half of children with BVFP will require a tracheostomy for upper airway obstruction.

Percutaneous Cervical Cordotomy
Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 1976Cordotomy should be reserved for patients with intractable pain resistant to conservative treatment that is not of a dysaesthetic type. The high cervical percutaneous technique permits exploitation of the principles of stereotactic surgery, especially physiological localization of the lesion site.

Percutaneous Cervical Cordotomy
Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 1974Percutaneous cervical cordotomy provides a nonoperative opportunity to interrupt the lateral spinothalamic pathways in patients with pain who are not good operative risks for an open cordotomy. The technique is relatively simple, but requires some practice. Indications should be the same as for open cordotomy, with critical patient selection.

Impact of Patient Factors and Management Strategies on Outcomes After Transverse Posterior Cordotomy
The Laryngoscope, 2020Carbon dioxide laser transverse posterior cordotomy (TPC) aims to improve airway aperture in patients with glottic obstruction. Postoperative complications may worsen airway compromise and necessitate additional interventions.

Percutaneous cervical cordotomy for cancer-related pain: prospective multimodal outcomes evaluation
BMJ Supportive & Palliative Care, 2020Background Percutaneous cervical cordotomy (PCC) offers pain relief to patients with unilateral treatment-refractory cancer-related pain. There is insufficient evidence about any effects of this intervention on patients’ quality of life.

Percutaneous Cordotomy for Pain
Surgical Clinics of North America, 1966Percutaneous cordotomy is a technically safe and simple method of performing spinothalamic tractotomy. It is ideally suited to the patient with normal lung function who has unilateral pain due to cancer. With some modifications and reservations, it may be recommended for patients with bilateral pain or with pain due to nonmalignant disease and for ...

Dynamic mapping of the corticospinal tract in open cordotomy and myelomeningocele surgery.
Journal of clinical neuroscience, 2020OBJECT Spinal cord surgeries carry a high risk for significant neurological impairments. The initial techniques for spinal cord mapping emerged as an aid to identify the dorsal columns and helped select a safe myelotomy site in intramedullary tumor ...

Abstract It is logical to assume that targeted destruction of pain pathways will relieve pain. Unfortunately most neuronal pathways have mixed fibres, and destruction of the painfibres involves destruction of useful function such as motor and sensory nerve tissue.
