title: [Diagnosis and treatment of a case of anterior adhesion of the vocal cords].
abstract: A case of synechia laryngis of the vocal cords is presented. Etiology and treatment of this pathological condition are reviewed. For the present case the synechia seems to have been caused by an acute recurring laryngitis. A teflon oval sectionned tube is placed in the anterior commissure and anchored through the prelaryngeal skin, until epithelisation has occurred. This method is compared with other similar techniques.
