  • Title: [Vocal cord synechia following short-term intubation].
    Author: Fritz KW, Schultz-Coulon HJ.
    Journal: Anaesthesist; 1986 May; 35(5):317-9. PubMed ID: 3740378.
    Abstract:
    A female of 17 years with a brain-damage was short-term respirated within the operation. After this procedure tracheotomia was performed for long term respiration. Fourteen months after the accident a synechia of the vocal cord was seen which caused impossibility of intubation. The reason for this synechia may be granuloma after tracheotomia with accompanying dysarthria of the vocal cord and reduced movement.
