Prevalence, incidence, and characteristics of dysphagia in those with unilateral vocal fold paralysis

Abstract: Objectives/Hypothesis The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of dysphagia definition on the incidence and overall prevalence of dysphagia in patients with unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVP) stratified by etiology. Study Design Retrospective medical chart review. Methods Data was collected from the records of individuals diagnosed with UVP from 2013 to 2018, including patient demographics, dysphagia questionnaire total scores, clinical evaluation dysphagia symptoms, and instrumental swallow … Show more

“…For voice parameters, the F0, jitter, shimmer, MPT, and NHR were reported. Three articles (27.27%) used VHI for quality of life assessment [ 1 , 2 , 4 ], but eight articles (72.72%) did not report [ 13 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 ]. The assessment time was undertaken pre-and post-operation as early as one week to 12 months.…”

“…Quality of life is compromised in speech and swallowing in patients with unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP). Because of recurrent laryngeal nerve neuropathy, inadequate glottic closure is frequently found because of idiopathic, neoplasm, or iatrogenic causes [ 1 ]. The surgical treatment includes injection laryngoplasty, laryngeal framework surgery, recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) re-innervation, and laryngeal pacing [ 2 ].…”

“…9 Dysphonia is the most common symptom, with rates of voice disturbance following thyroidectomy ranging from 30% to 87%. 18 Dysphagia has been reported in 55% to 69% of patients with VFP, [11][12][13] resulting in aspiration pneumonia in up to 6%. 11 Although less well recognized, dyspnea is also a common symptom in unilateral VFP, with a reported prevalence as high as 76%.…”
