Vocal fold injury following endotracheal intubationJournal of Laryngology and Otology - Tập 119 Số 10 - Trang 825-827 - 2005
Satoshi Kitahara, Yukihiro Masuda, Yoko Kitagawa
Vocal fold scarring results in the formation of fibrous tissue which disturbs the vibratory pattern of the fold during phonation. However, vocal fold scarring in humans is poorly understood because of the lack of clear case reports focusing on voice quality. The authors present a case of vocal fold scarring with changes in voice quality. At the time of injury the pedicle mucosa was cemente...... hiện toàn bộ

Elisabeth P. Egelund
AbstractTwo children with a congenital Cornelia de Lange syndrome and a verified sensorineural hearing loss are presented. One could be tested by conventional audiometry, the other only with the help of the newer computerized electronic methods. A short review of some earlier reports on congenital hearing loss in this syndrome is made.
Assessment of patency of the internal jugular vein following neck dissection and microvascular flap reconstruction by power Doppler ultrasoundJournal of Laryngology and Otology - Tập 116 Số 8 - Trang 622-626 - 2002
Bert van der Vegt, F G van den Berg, Cors van Schaik, Aad-Jan F Beerens, Radu A. Manoliu, Jonas A. Castelijns, Gordon B. Snow, C. René Leemans
The objective of this study was to assess patency of the internal jugular vein following modified radical or selective neck dissection and microvascular flap reconstruction by power Doppler ultrasound and its impact on free flap survival. In 23 patients who underwent selective or modified radical neck dissection and microvascular flap reconstruction the patency of the internal jugular vein...... hiện toàn bộ
Evaluation of cochlear implantation in post-meningitic adultsJournal of Laryngology and Otology - Tập 113 Số 24 - Trang 27-33 - 1999
J. Thomas, I.M. Cheshire
AbstractMeningitis is an important cause of deafness and in some studies has been associated with poorer outcomes in adult patients following cochlear implantation. Of the first 100 adults implanted under the Midland Cochlear Implant Programme, 28 were deafened as a result of meningitis. We compare our experience with these patients with patients with a non-meningi...... hiện toàn bộ
