RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: To assess and compare the effectiveness of various treatment approaches for laryngeal contact granulomas (LCG). METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on a cohort of 45 patients diagnosed with LCG at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from October 2017 to May 2023. Based on the treatment modalities administered, patients were categorized into three groups: acid suppression alone, hormone injection combined with acid suppression, and surgery combined with acid suppression. Subsequently, the study compared differences in treatment efficacy and average healing time among these three groups, using various indicators. RESULTS: The findings indicate that the granuloma size in LCG patients with hoarseness (0.126, 95% CI 0.087-0.288) was significantly greater compared to LCG patients without hoarseness (0.047, 95% CI 0.014-0.083) (P = 0.001). However, there were no significant variations in age, morphology (unlobulated/lobulated), laterality ratio (left/right), sex ratio (male/female), history of tracheal intubation (non-intubation/intubation), and RFS score (RFS > 7/RFS ≤ 7) (P > 0.05), regardless of the presence of hoarseness symptoms. At the treatment observation endpoint of 3 months, the curative ratio in the group receiving hormone injection combined with acid suppression was found to be significantly higher compared to the group receiving acid suppression alone (P = 0.018). In addition, the average healing time of patients in the hormone injection combined with acid suppression group was notably shorter than that of the acid suppression alone group (P = 0.007). CONCLUSIONS: The combination of hormonal injections and acid suppression may enhance the curative ratio and expedite the healing time of LCG.

Objective:The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of surgical resection of idiopathic laryngeal contact granuloma on the follow-up treatment. Methods:From April 2014 to December 2019, the clinical data of 390 male patients with idiopathic laryngeal granuloma treated were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into the group with history of surgical resection ï¼172 patientsï¼ and the group without surgical resection history ï¼218 patientsï¼, and then both received the combined therapy. The treatment efficacy of the two groups were compared. Results:By the end of 6 months after beginning the combined therapy, the total efficacy rate of the patients with a history of surgery was 71.5%ï¼123/172ï¼, and that in patients without a history of surgery was 97.7% ï¼213/218ï¼. The difference between the two groups was statistically significantï¼Z=-7.828, P=0.0001ï¼. Among the cured patients, the cure time of patients without the surgery history was shorter than patients with surgery historyï¼Z=-4.441, P=0.0001ï¼. Conclusion:Surgical treatment of laryngeal contact granuloma increases the difficulty of follow-up treatment, so surgical treatment is not recommended for newly diagnosed patients with laryngeal contact granuloma.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the short-term efficacy of transcutaneous glucocorticoid injection for laryngeal contact granuloma in females. METHODS: A total of 14 female patients with laryngeal contact granuloma treated in our outpatient department from November 2017 to January 2020 were included in the study. Inspiratory-phase laryngoscopy images were collected before treatment and 1 month after each injection, and the lesion size was measured and evaluated with ImageJ software. RESULTS: Two patients achieved complete remission after one injection, with a percent reduction of 100%. After two injections, 4 patients achieved complete remission, with a percent reduction ranging from 96% to 100%. After 3 injections, 4 patients achieved complete remission (including one patient with bilateral lesions), and the percent reduction ranged from 95% to 100%. Three patients achieved incomplete remission, with a percent reduction of 46%, 55%, and 81%, respectively. In one case, there was no remission, and the granuloma increased in size after treatment. CONCLUSION: In women with laryngeal contact granuloma, transcutaneous glucocorticoid injection therapy can quickly resolve the granuloma in a short period.

OBJECTIVE: Laryngeal contact granuloma is a disease of benign hypertrophic granulation tissue at the medial side of vocal process. Numerous studies of conservative and surgical management have reported effectiveness, yet optimal treatment has not been standardized. We compared primary and secondary outcomes of conservative and surgical treatment using endoscopic grading, Voice Handicap Index-10 (VHI-10), maximum phonation time (MPT), and recurrence rate. METHODS: We performed literature searches of MEDLINE, PubMed, and EMBASE from November 1985 to October 2017, with randomized controlled trials and case control studies of at least three months follow-up as the inclusion criteria. Outcomes included laryngoscopic findings, MPT, and VHI-10. Data regarding study design, outcome analysis, follow-up time, and disease remission were systematically collected. RESULTS: A total of 1069 patients were abstracted from 19 papers. With conservative treatment, 98% of patients' laryngeal granuloma resolved within three months, and 84% for the surgical group. There was a decrease in VHI-10 of 2.69 (95% credible interval (CI) -9.52 to 3.82) and 6.48 (95% CI -15.00 to 1.94) for conservative and surgical management, respectively. MPT improvement was 1.27 s (95% CI: 2.03-5.84) for conservative treatment and 5.02 s (95% CI: 0.78-8.07) for surgical. For all 19 studies, absolute recurrence risk for control, conservative, and surgical measures were respectively 4%, 16%, and 29%. CONCLUSIONS: Most patients treated conservatively or surgically alone responded to treatment, but conservative management was favored. VHI-10 and MPT improvement in surgical patients were noted, but only the latter was statistically significant. In regard to recurrence, conservative management had better outcome than surgical. Taken together, the results suggest that minimally symptomatic granulomas have higher response rate and lower recurrence risk when treated conservatively, while larger, symptomatic granulomas may favor surgical excision followed by medical management to reduce risk of recurrence.

Mycetoma remains endemic in the tropical and subtropical regions of the "mycetoma belt" including Senegal. It affects more commonly young men in the age group of 20 to 40 years. The foot represents the most commonly affected site. The most common extra-podal localizations are leg, knee, buttocks, hand and arm. We report an exceptional case of cervical fungal mycetoma that occurred in a 13-year-old Senegalese child. He consulted for a cervico-submandibular tumefaction with multiple sinuses and black grains discharge evolving since 6 years, associated to laryngeal dyspnoea. Mycological examination with culture isolated Madurella mycetomatis. Cervical CT Scan showed bone and soft tissue invasion. Terbinafine alone was administered. During the evolution, tracheotomy was performed following the aggravation of the laryngeal disorders. Death from severe sepsis occurred after 8 months of evolution. The particularities of our case are the occurrence of fungal mycetoma in a child, the cervical localization and the difficulties of therapeutic management largely due to the diagnostic delay.

The etiology of laryngeal granuloma can typically be attributed to endotracheal intubation, vocal abuse, or gastroesophageal reflux disease. There is a strong male predominance, except in cases due to intubation, where incidence is higher in women. We report a case of spontaneous development of multiple granulomas in a female with no history of intubation who presented with hoarseness and massive bilateral supraglottic masses obscuring her glottis. The disparity between the massive lesions and asymptomatic reflux highlights the need for further research in the pathophysiology of laryngeal granulomas.

Abstract Introduction Laryngeal granulomas are benign, recurrent lesions of many causes (reflux, voice abuse, intubation, and idiopathic), which renders its treatment difficult. Objective To describe our experience in the treatment of laryngeal granulomas. Methods From 16 medical records of the patients with laryngeal granulomas seen between 2010 and 2017 in a university hospital, the following data were analyzed: age, gender, vocal and gastroesophageal symptoms, vocal overuse, intubation, treatments, videolaryngoscopy before and after the treatment. Results Gender: female, 10; male, 6. Age: between 20 and 60 years old (11%). Etiology of the granulomas: intubation (9), reflux (4), idiopathic (3). The initial treatments adopted in all cases were: inhaled beclomethasone dipropionate 100 μg 12/12 hours (1month), proton pump inhibitor, omeprazole 40 mg/day (2months), and dietary and voice education. After this period, 10 patients (7 postintubation, 3 idiopathic) were submitted to surgery, since no improvements in the symptoms or in the lesions were seen. Of these, two recurred, requiring a second surgery, one of which recurred six times and received botulinum toxin A. Only one patient with granulomas due to laryngopharyngeal reflux presented no improvement in the symptoms nor in the lesion after the pharmacological treatment and had been submitted to microsurgery. All of the other patients with reflux granulomas were successfully treated with the drug treatment, and the longest treatment time for complete remission of the symptoms and of the lesions was 9 months. Conclusions In laryngeal granulomas caused by reflux, treatment with inhaled steroids and proton pump inhibitors proved to be effective, although prolonged. In postintubation and idiopathic granulomas, surgery was the best treatment.

AIMS: To confirm the efficacy of conservative treatment for laryngeal contact granuloma and identify factors influencing treatment outcome. METHODS: In this prospective study, patients with laryngeal contact granuloma were divided into a group receiving conservative treatment and a group undergoing surgery. Efficacy was assessed by analyzing the complete response after a 48-week follow-up. The association of treatment outcome with clinical factors was then evaluated. RESULTS: In total, 61 patients, 43 in the group receiving conservative treatment and 18 in the group undergoing surgery, were analyzed, and the complete response rate was 72.1% and 38.9%, respectively. Both univariate analysis and multivariate analysis revealed that treatment modality (p1 = 0.015, p2 = 0.043), voice abuse (p1 = 0.010, p2 = 0.010), and the size of the granuloma (p1 = 0.031, p2 = 0.020) were significantly associated with the complete response of laryngeal contact granuloma. Kaplan-Meier curves showed that alcohol consumption (p = 0.031), voice abuse (p < 0.001), and granuloma size (p = 0.025) were significantly related to the complete response of conservative treatment. CONCLUSIONS: This prospective study strengthens the argument for conservative treatment (instead of surgery) as the first choice for laryngeal contact granuloma. The results also suggest that voice abuse, alcohol consumption, and the size of the granuloma may predict treatment outcome.

INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to review the clinical characteristics and surgical treatment outcomes of the vocal process granuloma after the endotracheal intubation. METHODS: A retrospective chart review was performed at Chonnam National University Hwasun Hospital from January 2008 to December 2015. RESULTS: Twenty-one vocal process granulomas after endotracheal intubation were diagnosed in 13 patients. The most common symptom was hoarseness. Among 13 patients, bilateral vocal process granulomas were in 8 patients. For the remaining 5 patients, their unilateral vocal process granulomas were all left-sided. All the cases of vocal process granulomas after the endotracheal intubation were treated by laryngoscope microsurgery under general anesthesia. Recurrence of vocal process granulomas was identified in 1 lesion. CONCLUSION: This study suggests that surgery for vocal process granuloma after endotracheal intubation is a good treatment option for a rapid resolution of lesions and the associated symptoms, along with having low recurrence rates.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the effectiveness of in-office potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP) treatment of vocal fold granulomas and identify any predictors of complete lesion resolution. METHODS: A retrospective review of patients who underwent in-office KTP ablation of vocal fold granulomas between 2007 and 2016 was performed. Medical records were reviewed for use of acid suppression medication, prior surgical treatment, voice therapy, laser settings, number of treatments, follow-up time, and Voice Handicap Index-10 (VHI-10) scores. RESULTS: Twenty-six patients underwent a total of 43 laser treatments. Eighty percent of patients were previously on acid suppression medication, and 42.3% had failed previous endoscopic treatments. Patients underwent a mean number of 1.65 ± 1.16 in-office treatments with decrease in size in 96.2% of cases. The VHI-10 was not significantly affected. Complete resolution occurred in 73.1% of cases with follow-up time ranging from 1 to 86 months (median = 9.5 months). No recurrences occurred in patients with complete resolution. Other than undergoing a single KTP treatment, no variable was found to be predictive of complete lesion resolution. Granuloma etiology was not predictive of lesion resolution but did correlate with symptom improvement. CONCLUSION: In-office pulsed KTP laser is an effective treatment option for vocal fold granulomas as the lesion resolves in the majority of cases.

Introduction Voice disorders caused by pseudotumors of the vocal folds or paralysis of the vocal folds with incomplete glottis closure frequently require phonomicrosurgery. These interventions were analyzed with regard to quality of voice after surgery and safety of the intervention. Methods Retrospective analysis of 400 consecutive phonomicrosurgery interventions. The following parameters were collected: distribution of pathologies of the vocal folds, rating of the voice quality by both the surgeon (RBH-system) and patient and videolaryngstroboscopy six weeks after the intervention compared to the state prior to surgery, complications and results of histological examination. Results In our collective vocal fold polyps (36â %), cysts (12â %) and paralysis (10â %) dominated. After the intervention the quality of voice improved in 90â % of all cases. In 14â % voice therapy was needed postoperatively because of hyperfunction.After vocal fold augmentation one patient developed an edema of the larynx and another patient a temporary paralysis of the vocal fold of the opposite side. The histological examination showed as incidental findings a malignant osteoclastic giant cell tumor, a granular cell tumor and a carcinoma in situ of the vocal fold requiring further surgery and follow up. Discussion Phonomicrosurgery is a safe and effective therapy. The histological examination is also useful in patients with macroscopically non suspicious lesions to recognize rare or malignant tumor entities. Patient observation with early detection as well as therapy of complications like edema of the larynx or vocal fold paralysis is recommended.

CONCLUSIONS: It is considered that a regimen combining pharmacologic management and lifestyle modifications is the most effective treatment for laryngeal granulomas caused by GER. OBJECTIVES: This study compared the results of the combination therapy and surgery to determine the best treatment of laryngeal granuloma caused by gastro-esophageal reflux in 51 patients. METHODS: Prospective study. RESULTS: In the conservative treatment group, the CR rate was 89.7% and recurrence rate was 2.6%, while the lesions remained in patients (7.7%). This study compared the CR and recurrence rates between conservative treatment and surgery for granuloma. The results showed that the laryngeal granuloma recurrence rate was significantly lower with the conservative treatment regimen compared with surgery (p = .0016).

BACKGROUND: In-office laryngeal surgery is taking on a more commonplace role in the treatment of laryngeal disorders. The potassium-titanyl-phosphate (KTP) laser has been a resourceful adjunct to the management of patients with mucosal lesions of the vocal cords. However, a paucity of data exists for its use in postintubation granulomas treated in-office. CLINICAL CASE: A 43-year-old female presented with voice hoarseness and found to have a large obstructing postintubation granuloma which was treated by in-office KTP laser and en masse excision. CONCLUSIONS: We report the successful case of a patient receiving in-office treatment for a large vocal process granuloma using the KTP laser with en masse excision. The combined use of the KTP laser and forceps in-office can be valuable to the surgical management of vocal process granulomas, given their numerous recurrences. New avenues in office-based surgical management of laryngeal disorders can offer accessibility and decreased morbidity to patients.

OBJECTIVE: To present the outcomes of office-based autologous fat injection laryngoplasty for the treatment of vocal process granuloma in conjunction with glottic insufficiency. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective chart review. METHODS: This study included nine patients with vocal process granuloma in conjunction with glottic insufficiency who received autologous fat injection laryngoplasty. Videolaryngostroboscopic data, objective voice assessment, perceptual measurements of vocal quality, and subjective ratings of voice quality were examined before and after treatment. RESULTS: Of the nine patients, seven (78%) exhibited complete remission. The other two patients (22%) exhibited a partial response following the injection. In a subgroup of five patients who were refractory to antireflux and voice therapies, the resolution rate was 60%. Phonatory function presented significant improvements in jitter, noise-to-harmonic ratio, maximal phonation time, and asthenia. Videolaryngostroboscopic rating revealed significant improvements in closure phase ratio in the vibratory cycle. CONCLUSIONS: Autologous fat injection laryngoplasty can ameliorate glottic insufficiency and the resulting hyperfunctional behavior of the larynx. This therapy also encourages remission of vocal process granuloma and may represent an alternative treatment strategy.

AIM: To perform a psychopathological and clinical/psychological analysis of anxiety-depressive spectrum disorders (ADSD) in inflammatory otorhinolaryngological disease - larynx granuloma. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We examined 30 patients, aged 33-65 years, including 13 patients with post-surgical recurrence of granuloma and 17 patients diagnosed for the first time with granuloma. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The relationship between larynx granuloma and ADSD, predominantly of chronic type was shown. Prolonged psychotraumatic factors play a significant role in the development of ADSD. A role of anxiety in the ADSD structure as well as an importance of their diagnosis for a choice of therapeutic tactics was confirmed. Psychopharmacotherapy has led to a reduction in the frequency of granuloma relapses. The results confirmed the productivity of affective-stress model, based on the type of affectivity, in the analysis of ADSD.
