This study examined the use of autologous fat as an alternative to Teflon® and collagen as
the implantable material in vocal cord medialization. Five animals underwent left recurrent …

Six adult domestic strain cats were used to study the long-term histologic outcome of
injected autologous fat for augmentation of the paralyzed vocal fold. Each animal had …

The use of autogenous fat for augmentation of the paralyzed vocal fold is a promising
substitute for alternate injectable material such as Teflon (polytef paste …

Since 1987, the senior author has injected autogenous fat into paralyzed or atrophic vocal
cords as an alternative to alloplastic substances for vocal cord augmentation and …

Many techniques have been developed for medialization of the paralyzed vocal fold. The
purpose of this study is to evaluate autologous fat as an alternative to alloplastic substances …

Injection of autologous fat obtained by liposuction has been reported as an augmentation
technique for vocal fold paralysis. Unfortunately, it is not known whether this technique is …

Since 1987, the authors have used a new technique for the augmentation and medialization
of the paralyzed vocal cord. Eleven patients with paralyzed vocal cords and one patient with …

Numerous materials have been used over the years for vocal fold augmentation. Early use
of bioreactive compounds, such as paraffin, gave way to relatively inert substances, such as …

This research investigated the histopathologic and migratory properties of injectable
alternatives for vocal fold medialization. Thirteen dogs underwent sectioning of the recurrent …

Abstract Objectives/Hypothesis: Fat preparation for vocal‐fold injection medialization is
typically done by scraping of excised fat or by lipo‐aspiration; however, lipo‐aspiration is …
