In unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP) patients, we try to improve their symptoms such as hoarseness or aspiration by restoring nerve functions or medialization laryngoplasty (ML), etc. Until now, ML (thyroplasty and/or arytenoid adduction) is considered as gold standard of treatment for UVFP. However, if recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is damaged and use of RLN is feasible during operation, laryngeal reinnervation (LR) would be a good option. Anastomosis with ansa cervicalis to RLN is most common reinnervation method. Delayed LR may be considered in young patients when the RLN denervation period is not long (less than 2 years) for the treatment of surgery-related UVFP. Injection laryngoplasty and laryngeal framework surgery showed great voice outcomes in UVFP. Combination therapy (neuromuscular pedicle innervation with ML) also showed good post-operative voice outcomes even in longer periods (over 2 years). In pediatric patients, LR would be considered as a good treatment option because all procedures need to general anesthesia.

편측 성대마비에 의한 부전의 수술적 치료로는 그 동안 테플론주입에 의한성대내측전위술, 제1형 갑상연골성형술, 또는 피열연골내전술 등이 이용되었으며, 성대부전이 심하거나 성대높이에 차이가 있을 때는 제1형 갑상연골성형술 등에 비해 피열연골내전술이 좋은 결과를 보이는 것으로 보고되고 있다 그러나, 성대의 움직임은 있으면서 뒷쪽에 심한 성대부전(posterior glottic chink)을 보이는 경우에는 아직은 특별한 수술적인 방법이 없는 바, 저자들은 갑상선 부분절제술 후에 생긴 양쪽성대의 움직임은 있으면서 성문 뒷쪽에 심한 부전을 보인 발성장애 환자 1례에서 제1형 갑상연골성형술과 동시에 피열연골내전술을 시행하여 좋은 결과를 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다.
