Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 2013
Vocal cord dysfunction (VCD), generally characterized by paradoxical closure of the vocal cords during inspiration, is a common mimicker of asthma and of other conditions that cause upper airway obstruction. As a result, it is frequently overlooked and often misdiagnosed, resulting in administration of excessive medications or other unnecessary ...

Tramadol and Vocal Cord Closure
Anesthesiology, 2005TRAMADOL is an analgesic acting as both a weak opioid agonist and an inhibitor of monoamine neurotransmitter reuptake. It also provides effective postoperative analgesia. 1 Unlike other opioids, it is well tolerated and has no clinically relevant effects on cardiovascular parameters; therefore, it is widely administered and may prove particularly ...

Vocal cord sulcus is a congenital condition consisting of a furrow on the medial edge of the vocal cord. It is most often bilateral but may be unilateral. The symptoms are a hoarse and breathy voice due to incomplete closure of the vocal cords. The present series comprises 15 patients found among 1,400 patients with voice and speech disorders.

"Early" vocal cord laterofixation for the treatment of bilateral vocal cord immobility
European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2001Vocal cord immobility (VCI) is commonly caused by a nonlaryngeal malignancy, thyroid surgery, or a presumed viral insult etc. The paralysis is often transient or temporary, thus the care of the patient should be optimized to avoid unnecessary diagnostic and therapeutic endeavours.

PEDIATRIC VOCAL CORD PARALYSIS
The Laryngoscope, 1979AbstractPediatric vocal cord paralysis accounts for approximately 10% of all congenital laryngeal lesions. Early detection of these neurogenic disorders is based upon a high index of suspicion and is important to prevent catastrophes during periods of acute respiratory embarrassment.

Vocal cord dysfunction in a child
Allergy, 1999Vocal cord dysfunction (VCD) involves paradoxical adduction of the vocal cord during the respiratory cycle. This usually occurs during inspiration, but can also be seen in expiration. Vocal cord appositioning produces airflow obstruction sufficient to cause wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing.

Selective Reinnervation of Vocal Cord Adductors in Unilateral Vocal Cord Paralysis
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1984Laryngeal reinnervation procedures were performed in a series of dogs. An attempt was made to reinnervate the vocal cord adductors with one nerve graft, while a different nerve was grafted to the abductors. The recurrent laryngeal nerve was dissected distally to its terminal branches, where the abductor-adductor sorting out occurs.
