ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
This case report aims to histologically examine human vocal fold tissue 9 months after silk-hyaluronic acid (silk-HA) injection.INTRODUCTION:
Silk-HA is an engineered injectable implant made from natural protein biomaterial, silk, crosslinked with hyaluronic acid to provide long-lasting, dynamic office-based vocal fold injection augmentation to restore glottic competency.METHODS:
We report the case of an adult female with left vocal fold immobility and bilateral atrophy that was treated with silk-HA injections with biopsy taken 9 months after injection for histological examination.CONCLUSION:
Silk-HA injection in human true vocal fold demonstrates slow degradation of particles and intended cellular infiltration 9 months after injection.
