title: [The experience with the rehabilitation of the patients with paralytic laryngeal stenosis].
abstract: This paper is designed to familiarize otorhinilaryngologists with the practical methods applied in the surgical rehabilitation of the patients presenting with paralytic laryngeal stenosis. We report the results of the treatment of 13 patients with this pathology differing in age and duration of the disease following strumectomy. Paralytic laryngeal stenosis was eliminated in 11 of the 13 patients. The favourable prognosis was strongly dependent on the time interval between the development of laryngeal paralysis and the surgical intervention. The total duration of the treatment of different patients varied from 8.5 months to 1.5 years because some of them required corrective surgery.
