The Laryngoscope May 24, 2018
Lee SW, et al. - Authors compared and evaluated the long-term voice outcomes when thyroidectomy-related unilateral vocal fold paralysis (VFP) was managed using injection laryngoplasty (IL) and recurrent laryngeal nerve reinnervation (RLNR). They performed a prospective clinical trial from March 2005 to January 2016 at Soonchunhyang University Bucheon Hospital (Bucheon, South Korea). As per data, statistically significant voice improvements were seen with both RLNR and IL at 36 months postoperatively. Nonetheless, better results were provided by RLNR vs IL after 36 months.
