Abstract
Program Description:
This miniseminar will provide a contemporary review of injection laryngoplasty (IL). Common and overlooked causes of glottal insufficiency will be reviewed. Methods of evaluating patients and the timing of IL relative to patient presentation will be addressed. Technical discussions of how to perform IL in the operating room and in the office will take place. A thorough review of in-office IL will highlight indications and techniques for injection as well as discuss costs, billing, and other practical aspects required for establishing and maintaining an office-based practice. Case-based scenarios will be used to demonstrate pearls and pitfalls in performance of IL.
Educational Objectives:
1) Recognize laryngeal conditions that will benefit from vocal fold injection. 2) Gain familiarity with indications and approaches for in-office vocal fold injection. 3) Apply techniques to improve outcomes of vocal fold injections.
