Arytenoid adduction was included in 22 of these procedures. 5 in the Gore-Tex alone group. Jectively improved when arytenoid adduction was used P. slightly higher in the arytenoid adduction group 14 vs. Or Arytenoid Adduction Combined with Medialization Laryngoplasty through Type I Gore-Tex Thyroplasty or Medialization Laryngoplasty.Thyroplasty, Arytenoid Adduction, and Injection Laryngoplasty....

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Arytenoid adduction (AA) surgery can be technically challenging, potentially limiting its utilization in general practice. Because AA often serves as an adjunct to thyroplasty type I (TTI) in the management of unilateral vocal fold paralysis, this study sought to define the anatomic position of the muscular process (MP) of the arytenoid cartilage in relation to the TTI win...

BACKGROUND Arytenoid cartilage dislocation/subluxation is one of the rare complications following tracheal intubation, and there have been no reports about risk factors leading this complication. From our clinical experience, we have an impression that patients undergoing cardiovascular operations tend to be associated with this complication. AIMS We designed a large retrospective study to re...

INTRODUCTION Invasive methods currently applied to the respiratory tract may result in impaired movement of the cricoarytenoid joint with hoarseness and immobility of the vocal ligament. Hoarseness after tracheal intubation is reported as a high incidence in patients who receive general anaesthesia. In most cases, the symptoms are temporary and improve within several days. We report this case f...

ryngeal morbidity, such as hoarseness, submucosal hemorrhage, subglottic edema, laryngitis, and arytenoid cartilage dislocation [1,2]. Among others, hoarseness is reported as the most common laryngeal morbidity after general anesthesia, with widely varying incidence from 16% to 55% [3]. However, it is generally resolved within a few days, unless accompanied by serious complications, such as ary...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the postoperative laryngeal CT findings of neoarytenoid soft tissue at an arytenoidectomy site during a supracricoid partial laryngectomy, and to compare its thickness to the mucosa over the spared arytenoid cartilage. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-one patients underwent a supracricoid partial laryngectomy with (n = 14) or without (n = 17) an arytenoidectomy. A postoperat...

BACKGROUND Intubation trauma is the most common cause of arytenoid dislocation. The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnosis and treatment of arytenoid cartilage dislocation from external blunt laryngeal trauma in the absence of laryngeal electromyography (LEMG) and to explore the role of early attempted closed reduction in arytenoids cartilage reposition. MATERIAL AND METHODS This ...

REASONS FOR PERFORMING STUDY The extent to which variability affects endoscopic grading of arytenoid cartilage movement is uncertain. OBJECTIVE To determine the observer and within horse variability of grading arytenoid cartilage movement in horses during resting endoscopic examination, using a 7-grade system. METHODS Endoscopic recordings of the upper respiratory tract made at rest in 270 ...

Arytenoid cartilage dislocation is not a common complication, but its delayed diagnosis reduces the therapeutic effect of treatment. A male patient underwent reversed total shoulder replacement surgery in the beach chair position under general anesthesia. The patient experienced postoperative hoarseness, and it was revealed that he had right arytenoid dislocation. Voice restoration was accompli...
