Synchronous Regeneration: Key Mechanism for Selective Reinnervation in Bilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis [PDF]
This study investigates the mechanisms behind the success of selective laryngeal reinnervation surgery in bilateral vocal fold paralysis. In an animal model, the surgery promoted neuromuscular regeneration and restored coordinated vocal fold movement, with no misdirected potentials observed.

Clinical Efficacy Analysis of Unilateral Modified Arytenoidectomy for Bilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis [PDF]
ABSTRACT Purpose To explore the clinical efficacy of unilateral modified arytenoidectomy (UMA) in the treatment of bilateral vocal fold paralysis(BVFP) based on animal models. Methods The UMA which had been tested in excised canine larynges with simulated BVFP was adapted into a clinical technique. The characteristics of this surgical technique involve

Feasibility of Laryngeal Joint Replacement: A Proof of Concept Study in Cadavers [PDF]
Treatment in advanced cases of posterior laryngeal stenosis relies on permanent tracheostomy or irreversible arytenoidectomy/cordectomy, which are compromises between voice, swallowing, and airway. While having intact laryngeal neuromuscular function, there is immobility of the vocal cord due to scarring and ankylosis of the cricoarytenoid joint.

A Novel Murine Model of Acute Laryngeal Injury After Intubation [PDF]
This study describes a novel murine model of acute laryngeal injury (ALgI) after intubation. Chemomechanical injury was performed to the posterior glottis of adult mice using a bleomycin‐dipped wire brush under endoscopic guidance, resulting in reduced glottic mobility, increased posterior glottic thickness, and increased collagen expression. This safe,

Development of a Clinically Relevant Rabbit Model of Acute Laryngeal Injury [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objectives Acute laryngeal injury (ALgI) is created as a result of endotracheal tube pressure ulcer formation leading to fibrosis and inflammation. This condition often leads to airway obstruction and voice and swallowing dysfunction. This study demonstrates a reliable animal model of ALgI to reproduce the acute wound process seen clinically ...

Posterior cordotomy in bilateral vocal cord paralysis
Introduction: Bilateral vocal cords paralysis in adduction when it is irreversible requires treatment due to the inspiratory dyspnea that produces. Different surgical techniques can be used to increase the glottic space. Posterior cordotomy with partial arytenoidectomy improves dyspnea and is one of the most used surgeries.

Idiopathic bilateral abductor cord palsy-can it be the cause of obstructive sleep apnea?
We describe a case of 27 year old male who presented with history of breathing difficulty with episodes of apnea for 8 years. He was suspected to have obstructive sleep apnea and a nocturnal polysomnography showed Apnea-Hypopnea index of 34/hour and the ...
