Endoscopic Sealing With a PGA Sheet to Reduce Scarring After Vocal Fold Mucosal Resection

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 4, August 2026.
We evaluated whether endoscopic sealing of vocal fold defects using a polyglycolic acid (PGA) sheet with fibrin glue improves postoperative voice outcomes after transoral laser microsurgery for early glottic lesions. PGA sealing was associated with earlier recovery of glottal closure and mucosal wave on videostroboscopy, as well as improved perceptual ...
