Computerized tomography of the glottis after intracordal autologous fat injection.
According to the committee on speech, voice, and swallowing disorders of the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, various surgical methods such as laryngeal framework surgery, laryngeal re-innervation, and injection laryngoplasty might be used to palliate inferior laryngeal nerve paralysis. In the present case report we document the survival and exact location of the boluses of autologous fat in one patient in whom this material was used for injection laryngoplasty.
