In-Office Laryngeal Injection

“…In reality, most surgeons will develop facility with one or another approach determined by experience and personal preference, allowing them to achieve consistent results, and a familiarity with one or two others to use as fall-back methods. The reader is directed to useful descriptions of technique by Chhetri and Jamal [35 • ], Amin [32], and Rosen and colleagues [31].…”

“…The vocal fold is accessible by means of three principle transcutaneous techniques [3,31]. The transcricothyroid technique has evolved out of the method used to inject botulinum toxin.…”

Evaluation of Dysphonic Patients by General Otolaryngologists

“…Secondary to differences in light and image transmission, image quality varies by technique, and different examiners are often more familiar with one technique over another. 3 The addition of stroboscopy to still-light endoscopy has also advanced the evaluation of dysphonic patients. Assessing the vibratory properties of the vocal folds during stroboscopy improves the accuracy of diagnosis and enhances treatment planning for dysphonic patients.…”

“…Laryngeal examination is an essential aspect in the evaluation of dysphonic patients. 3 Various methods for visualizing the larynx exist, including mirror laryngoscopy, rigid indirect telescopic endoscopy, flexible fiberoptic endoscopy, and flexible distal chip endoscopy. Secondary to differences in light and image transmission, image quality varies by technique, and different examiners are often more familiar with one technique over another.…”

Injection Laryngoplasty Materials

“…Enjeksiyon laringoplasti semptomatik glottal yetersizliğin tedavisinde oldukça etkin bir tedavi yöntemidir. Glottal yetersizlik tek taraflı vokal kord paralizisi, tek veya çift taraflı vokal kord parezisi, vokal kord atrofisi (presbilarinks ve yaylanmada olduğu gibi) ve vokal kord yumuşak doku kaybı (sulkus vokalis, skar, travmatik veya iatrojenik doku kaybı gibi) nedeniyle olabilir [3]. Enjeksiyonda amaç etkin glottal yeterlilik sağlamak ve/veya vokal kord lamina propriasının viskoelastik özelliklerini geri kazandırmak, sonuç olarak da ses kalitesini arttırmaktır.…”
