Abstract
The operation of simultaneous bilateral posterior cordectomy by CO2 laser was performed in 22 cases of bilateral vocal fold paralysis. The success rate was up to 92% with good airway and voice quality. The procedure is simple, cost-effective with virtually no complications. Problems related to deglutition, aspiration, or granuloma formation were not reported.
