Laryngopharyngeal Reflux (LPR), The True Vocal Fold Cyst with Reinke's Edema
Loading player ... The player requires Flash Player plugin
Case description
In this video we can see the true vocal folds appearance in a patient with Reinke's oedema. In the subepithelial space a gel-like substance is accumulating slowly which results in coarse mucosal waves and warbly hoarse voice. In the same time there is a presence of right vocal fold subepithelial cyst and an evidence of reflux laryngitis. Heavy smoking and abuse/overuse of voice were the predisposing factors in this case. This patient needs a comprehensive management which includes speech therapy, treatment of reflux, and microphonosurgery.
