[Treatment of dysphonia spastica by recurrent nerve resection (author's transl)].
Fifteen-month follow-up of a patient with severe dysphonia spastica treated by recurrent nerve resection showed that complete recovery had been obtained. Pathological findings, and the results of sonographic, phonographic, glottographic, and electromyographic examinations in this affection are discussed, and an attempt made to deduce the mechanism of action of this resection, and to establish the most valid indications for its employ.
