Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Larynx performs important functions of the aero-digestive tract, it has vital role in control of breathing, phonation, deglutition and protection of lower respiratory tract from aspiration. Vocal cord paralysis is a common and at times debilitating laryngeal dysfunction that has great social and economic impact on patients life. Medialization thyroplasty (MT), if done accurately and up to the expectations of the patient is very rewarding. However different materials with some modifications in the technique of the classical Isshiki type 1 thyroplasty is in practice, each with its own profile of benefits and disadvantages. Most of them are costly and out of reach of general population. In this regard, we aim to test a prolene mesh implant, which is easily available and can be placed with relative ease.
