초록

Unilateral vocal cord paralysis occurs from a dysfunction of the recurrent laryngeal nerve. It causes a characteristic hoarseness, shortness of breath and swallowing disability. Prompt injection laryngoplasty is a treatment options that aims to improve these symptoms less invasively and easily than any other procedures. Cross-linked hyaluronic acid (HA) is widely used injection material. It is non-mammalian polysaccharides derived from streptococcus strain and well known for its duration in vocal cord about 3-6 months after injection. However, there were no complication reports such as infection or rejection after HA injection laryngoplasty in previous report. We present a case of patient with laryngeal abscess after transcricothyroid membrane percutaneous HA injection laryngoplasty.
