“…The main drawback of autologous fat injection is the relative unpredictability of the degree of its resorption. In previous reports, 15,[20][21][22] the results of injection of fat lasted for from 2 months to 4 years. However, most studies evaluated the voice outcome but not the swallowing function.…”

Aspiration has been frequently noted among patients suffering from vocal-fold paralysis. The association between a defect of glottal closure and aspiration in patients with unilateral vocal paralysis appears to have been rarely reported. The current study reviews collected data consisting of videotaped flexible nasoendoscopy and stroboscopy for patients with a unilateral vocal-fold paralysis. Mean normalized glottal gap areas for patients suffering vocal paralysis with associated aspiration are significant greater than that for the non-aspiration group. Subsequent to the surgical correction of the glottal gap, all patients recovered well from their earlier aspiration. The investigation of objectively derived data revealed that poor airway protection due to incomplete closure of the vocal fold was the major cause of aspiration for patients suffering unilateral vocal-fold paralysis. Intracordal autologous fat injection can successfully improve the breath control and eliminate aspiration in patients with vocal-fold paralysis.

“…However, the amount of volume reduction seems consistent and predictable with AP as opposed to other materials such as fat, Radiesse Voice, and Cymetra, whose resorption has been reported to be more variable. 4,5,8,19,20 The process of making the AP implant allowed for creation of pastes made of different particle sizes. Once it was determined that particles milled for 2000 or more cycles were small enough to easily pass through a 25 gauge needle, the effect of different particle size on residence time was tested.…”

“…CT also can be used to examine the vocal cords and the surrounding soft tissues to estimate the amount of material needed for injection laryngoplasty in the management of vocal cord paralysis [9]. Injection laryngoplasty is a continuously evolving procedure whereby a plastic material, such as polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon, DuPont) or acellular dermis (AlloDerm, LifeCell) is injected into the vocal cords under indirect mirror laryngoscopic or flexible videolaryngoscopic guidance for visualization of the vocal cords.…”

“…During injection of the plastic material, the target can vary depending on the symptoms and the condition of the diseased vocal cord. In these cases, preoperative phonation CT of the larynx and coronal reconstruction can be valuable in understanding the 3D shape of the diseased vocal cords and determining the amount of material to inject [5,7,9]. Further study of the role of preoperative phonation CT of the larynx before injection laryngoplasty is necessary.…”
