  • Background and Objectives: Vocal cord granuloma is a exophytic inflammatory mass and caused by gastroesophageal reflux, voice abuse, endotracheal intubation. There has been a controversy in the treatment of vocal cord granuloma. Our aim of study is to know the clinical characteristics and the results of surgical management for vocal cord granuloma. Materials and Methods: We have reviewed and analyzed medical records of 55 patients who were diagnosed and surgically treated as vocal cord granuloma in Asan medical center from 1997 to 2005 retrospectively. Results: 25 cases were intubation granuloma and 30 cases were contact granuloma. In intubation granuloma, the clinical manifestation was hoarseness(70%), foreign body sensation(44%), chronic cough(21%). In contact granuloma, the clinical manifestation was hoarseness(67%), foreign body sensation(60%), throat clearing(21%). The recurrence rate after surgery was 8% in intubation granuloma and 33% in contact granuloma. Mean recurrence time was 4.1months in intubation granuloma and 3.2months in contact granuloma. Conclusion: Although there is no significant difference, recurrence rate after surgery was high in contact granuloma compared to intubation granuloma(p=0.125). Although this study is retrospective, surgical management must be considered in resolving diagnostic doubt, treating airway obstruction, and failure in conservative treatments.

  • Objectives : The purpose of this study is to report a case of a patient with vocal cord contact granuloma that showed improvement through Korean medicine treatment alone. Methods : This study was conducted on patient who has vocal cord contact granuloma for December 23, 2021 to July 30, 2022. The patient was treated with Korean medical treatment including acupuncture, herbal medicine and also corrected lifestyle habits. After treatment, we evaluated the patient's symptoms and used Farwell's grading system to evaluated the size of the granuloma. Results : The patient's symptoms significantly improved and the granuloma disappeared with treatment. Conclusions : It is considered that contact granuloma can be treated without side effects through Korean medical treatment.

  • Endotracheal intubation is commonly associated with laryngeal injury that often resolves spontaneously without any complication. However, stenosis or granulomatous lesions are generally found on the tracheal wall or vocal process at the tube cuff level, caused by excessive cuff pressure. We present a case of fatal vocal cord granuloma leading to dyspnea following orthognathic surgery and sustained intubation for 14 hours.

  • In the field of otolaryngology-head and neck surgery, botulinum toxins are widely used for the treatment of spasmodic dysphonia and vocal tremors. Recently, the applications of botulinum toxin have gradually expanded with time, to include vocal fold granuloma, mutational falsetto, bilateral vocal cord paralysis, and chemical reduction for arytenoid dislocation as an adjunctive modality. According to a nation-wide multicenter study conducted by the Korean Society of Laryngology, Phoniatrics and Logopedics for treatment modality of contact granuloma, among the various treatment modalities, botulinum toxin injection showed the highest response rate and lowest recurrence rate in both primary and refractory cases. Therefore, botulinum toxin could be reserved as a second-line treatment for contact granuloma in which the first treatment was not effective, but also could be used as a first-line treatment depending on the patient's and institution's situation. For recalcitrant nodules, injection of botulinum toxin into the bilateral thyroarytenoid muscle will reduce glottal contact force and result in a forceful chemical voice rest. In special situations, botulinum toxin injection could be one of the alternative treatment options for recalcitrant vocal nodules.

  • Lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH) is a type of benign vascular tumor. It arises from vascular endothelial cells and contains capillaries arranged in a lobular pattern. In the head and neck, the most common presenting location of LCH is the lips, and presentation in the larynx is very rare. LCH might not be distinct from granuloma in macroscopic views. We report a 71-year-old female with LCH of the larynx that was totally resected via laryngeal microsurgery with a CO2 laser and briefly review the literature.

  • Although many factors associated with difficult intubation have been known, predictors of difficult mask ventilation are not well known. We experienced a case of nearly complete airway obstruction following usual anesthetic induction which needed various emergency treatments. The patient had a preoperative diagnosis of contact granuloma of right posterior vocal cord and bilateral vocal cord palsy but later was found out as invasive laryngeal cancer. Upon the surgical field of view, both vocal cords were showing significantly thickened and fixated appearance and was considered as in the critical narrowing state with the potential of complete obstruction. Using $C-MAC^{(R)}$ video laryngoscope we were able to see the narrowed vocal cord and choose proper size of endo-tracheal tube. Consequently, intubation was successfully done and operation was conducted. From this case, we have lessons that physicians should examine the patient's airway more carefully in case of laryngeal mass and prepare emergency measures.

  • Organophosphates are used as herbicides. Glyphosate is one of the acidic organophosphate solution of pH4.8-6. We experienced a case of laryngeal injury after glyphosate caustic ingestion. He had a mild respiratory distress, and a laryngeal granuloma was observed in endoscopy. He received treatment with oral steroid and PPI for two weeks, the laryngeal granuloma and respiratory distress were nearly disappeared. Therefore, we expect this case report to be helpful the therapeutic formulations in the damage of larynx due to glyphosate.

  • Despite improvement in respiratory care, including use of low pressure and high volume cuffed tubes, tracheal stenosis remains a serious complication after a long-term tracheal intubation and tracheostomy. In such patients, tracheal resection and primary anastomosis is still considered ideal therapeutic modality. Between 1989 and 1997, we performed tracheal resections with end-to-end anastomosis on 14 patients with no operative mortality and some morbidity. Tracheal stenosis was caused by tracheostomy in nine patients, by endotracheal intubation in three patients and by thyroid carcinoma in two patients. The length of stenosis was various from 2cm to 4.5cm. All patient underwent segmental tracheal resection and primary anastomosis(14 patients) and additional procedures were cricoid cartilage reconstruction(2 patients), suprahyoid laryngeal release(3patients), carinal release technique(2 patients) and arytenoidectomy(2 patients). We have nine complications: granulona at anastomosis site in four patients, vocal cord palsy in two patients and restenosis, pneumonia, skin necrosis in each of those patients. The granuloma was removed by bronchoscopic forceps(4 patients). Vocal cord palsy was treated by arytenoidectorny(2 patients), restenosis by T-tube insertion, pneumonia by antibiotics and skin necrosis was treated by skin graft. We reviews our expenence of clinical features of tracheal stenosis and surgical treatment by tracheal one-to-end anastomosis with additional procedures to avoid postoperative complications for sucessful results.
