title: [Management of unilateral vocal cord paralysis].
abstract: The phoniatric analysis evaluates the importance of the vocal disorder and the appearance of the larynx what permets to find five clinical cases. For each one, there is a precise treatment: no treatment, rehabilitation with precises exercises in each case, collagen injection, early or secondary to rehabilitation. The rehabilitation will be intensive and done as soon as possible. It is based on a well known body proprioception. Intrinsic laryngeal muscles work, breathing exercises, exercises aimed at restoring the laryngeal sphincter will precede the pure vocal work. Author's experience shows that the results are good if rehabilitation is well indicated from the beginning and the patient with good motivations.
