The patients of group 1 (n\u00a0=\u00a026) and 2 (n\u00a0=\u00a025) were re\u2010assessed up to 3 months post\u2010operatively regarding UVFP persistence\/recovery and perceptive voice sound quality. At follow\u2010ups, perceptual analysis of voice sound (using roughness=R\/breathiness=B\/hoarseness=H scale) and endoscopic laryngoscopy have been performed. Position of immobile vocal fold, shape of glottal closure and RBH parameters have been considered for statistical analyses.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Restitution of UVFP with regular respiratory vocal fold mobility of both vocal folds occurred in 53.8% of group 1 (VT), and in 40.0% of group 2 (SES) after 3 months of therapy between both groups. No difference could be seen for RBH, type of glottal closure and position of ailing vocal folds in patients with persisting UVFP within both groups and between the groups.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>The study reveals that SES can achieve similar functional outcome in early UVFP. Thus, it should be considered as an equivalent therapy alternative to VT for treatment of early UVFP patients since no significant difference in vocal outcome and glottal configuration between the two groups could be demonstrated.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/coa.13703","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,29]],"date-time":"2020-12-29T00:22:13Z","timestamp":1609201333000},"page":"530-537","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Comparison of voice therapy and selective electrical stimulation of the larynx in early unilateral vocal fold paralysis after thyroid surgery: A retrospective data analysis"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"46","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0637-6880","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Annabella","family":"Kurz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology Division of Phoniatrics\u2010Logopedics Medical University of Vienna Vienna Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Matthias","family":"Leonhard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology Division of Phoniatrics\u2010Logopedics Medical University of Vienna Vienna Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Doris Maria","family":"Denk\u2010Linnert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology Division of Phoniatrics\u2010Logopedics Medical University of Vienna Vienna Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Winfried","family":"Mayr","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering Medical University of Vienna Vienna Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ines","family":"Kansy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology Division of Phoniatrics\u2010Logopedics Medical University of Vienna Vienna Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Berit","family":"Schneider\u2010Stickler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otorhinolaryngology Division of Phoniatrics\u2010Logopedics Medical University of Vienna Vienna Austria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_13_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005537-200201000-00022"},{"issue":"4","key":"e_1_2_13_3_1","first-page":"497","article-title":"Evaluation and treatment of the unilateral paralyzed vocal fold.
