Laryngeal ultrasound and pediatric vocal fold nodules.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The term vocal fold nodules refers to bilateral thickening of the membranous folds with minimal impairment of the vibratory properties of the mucosa. Nodules are thought to be related to repetitive mechanical stress, associated with voice use patterns. Diagnosis is typically made in the office via either rigid or flexible laryngeal stroboscopy. Depending on the individual ...
متن کاملRadiophonosurgery of benign superficial vocal fold lesions.
OBJECTIVE To conduct a prospective randomized controlled trial describing and investigating the efficacy and safety of radiosurgical excision of benign superficial vocal fold lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty patients with benign superficial vocal fold lesions (20 vocal nodules, 27 vocal polyps and three Reinke's oedema) who failed conservative therapy were included in the study. They were...
متن کاملMonitoring vocal fold abduction through vocal fold contact area.
A number of commercial devices for measuring the transverse electrical conductance of the thyroid cartilage produce waveforms that can be useful for monitoring movements within the larynx during voice production, especially movements that are closely related to the time-variation of the contact between the vocal folds as they vibrate. This paper compares the various approaches that can be used ...
متن کاملLaryngeal Electromyographic findings in patients with vocal fold motion asymmetry.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Vocal fold motion asymmetry (VFMA) is often attributed to vocal fold paresis or an anatomical variant. Although laryngeal electromyography (LEMG) may be used to evaluate patients with vocal fold paresis, electrodiagnostic findings in VFMA have not been well defined. STUDY DESIGN Review of a case series METHODS Twenty-five symptomatic patients with VFMA were examined by...
متن کاملOffice-based vocal fold injection with the laryngeal introducer technique.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS There are numerous techniques for awake laryngeal injection, each with its limitations and technical challenges. We demonstrate a modification to the thyrohyoid approach for injection that stabilizes needle introduction and allows for consistent placement in a wide variety of larynges. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective review at a tertiary care institution. METHODS A retrospe...
