Life-threatening event after injection laryngoplasty in a patient with chemotherapy-induced vocal-fold motion impairment: A case report

Abstract

Background: Although chemotherapy induced vocal fold motion impairment was first reported in 1971, there are few reports. Herein, we describe a case in which life threatening side effects occurred after injection laryngoplasty for the treatment of chemotherapy induced vocal fold motion impairment accompanied by dysphonia and aspiration in a patient with lymphoma.
