    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Vocal cord granulomas, often occurring after intubation, have a high recurrence rate despite multiple removals. This study suggests vocal ulcers and granulomas are distinct conditions at the same site.

    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Laryngology
    • Surgical Pathology

    Background:

    • Vocal cord granulomas are benign growths that can affect voice quality.
    • Postintubation granulomas are a recognized complication, particularly after endotracheal intubation.
    • High recurrence rates pose a significant challenge in managing vocal cord granulomas.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the clinical characteristics and recurrence patterns of vocal cord granulomas.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of different removal methods on granuloma recurrence.
    • To challenge the conventional understanding of vocal cord granulomas and ulcers.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 16 adult and pediatric cases of vocal cord granulomas.
    • Documentation of granuloma etiology, including postintubation cases.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Tracking of recurrence rates following surgical excision and laser removal.

    • Main Results:

    • Seven of the 16 studied granulomas occurred postintubation.
    • All granulomas required at least one removal, with an average of three removals per patient.
    • Recurrence rates were high and did not significantly differ between surgical excision and laser removal techniques.

    Conclusions:

    • Vocal cord granulomas exhibit a high recurrence rate, necessitating multiple interventions.
    • The method of removal (surgical excision vs. laser) did not appear to influence the recurrence rate.
    • A revised understanding is proposed, differentiating vocal ulcers from vocal cord granulomas as separate entities at the same anatomical location.
