Abstract EN
Background.
Endolaryngeal suture lateralisation is an ideal operation for bilateral vocal fold paralysis.
However, restenosis owing to breakage and slippage of suture can sometimes occur.
In such a case, methods that are more effective in expanding the glottis, including arytenoidectomy, must be selected.
Case Report.
Herein, we report two female patients aged 86 and 54 years who presented with bilateral vocal cord paralysis and who had restenosis after suture lateralisation.
Endoscopic partial arytenoidectomy was performed, and satisfactory outcomes were obtained.
This method maintains the height of the arytenoid and preserves its sensation by leaving a part of the cartilage and mucous membrane.
Conclusion.
Endoscopic partial arytenoidectomy is effective for securing the airway while preserving vocal function and preventing aspiration.
This technique is suitable for patients with restenosis after they have undergone endolaryngeal suture lateralisation.
