[Hoarseness resulting from post-intubation arytenoid cartilage subluxation in an 11-year-old girl].
There has been described a case of the right arytenoid cartilage subluxation in a 11-year-old girl who underwent several intubations and bronchoscopies as a newborn and an infant. The voice has gone hoarse owing to those interventions. Videolaryngoscopy revealed anterior and medial dislocation of the right arytenoid cartilage accompanied by the immobility in the cricoarytenoid joint, right vocal movement being preserved. Voice therapy was not successful as the parents lost their interest, considering the present child's voice to be normal.
