  • Title: [Functional results of teflon injection of the vocal cords (author's transl)].
    Author: Richstein A, Beck C.
    Journal: HNO; 1980; 28(9):301-4. PubMed ID: 7462038.
    Abstract:
    Unilateral vocal cord paralysis is the prime indication for vocal cord Teflon injection. The functional results in 38 patients are considered and it can be seen that this treatment has a favorable influence not only on cordal atrophy but also on the hypofunctional dysphonia. Depending upon the clinical findings Teflon may be injected into one or both cords and also several times into the same cord. No tissue reaction was seen and the functional results in both situations were good.
