An a priori protocol was defined to identify all articles that presented quantifiable outcome data in children aged &lt;18 years who underwent surgical treatment to improve glottal competence for dysphagia. Two authors independently determined references meeting the inclusion criteria, extracted data, and assigned levels of evidence. Data were pooled via a random effects model where possible. The quality of studies was graded with the MINORS criteria.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>An overall 398 publications were screened, with 9 meeting inclusion criteria. A total of 115 patients were included. Of these, 75% had preoperative swallowing symptoms. Surgical intervention for dysphagia included 61 injection laryngoplasties, 11 medialization laryngoplasties, and 10 reinnervations (ansa cervicalis to recurrent laryngeal nerve). The articles consistently reported success in improving dysphagia symptoms, and limited meta\u2010analysis demonstrated a mean improvement after surgical intervention in 79% (95% CI, 67%\u201091%) of children. The reported rate of minor and major complications was 15% (95% CI, 1%\u201029%).

Selection of surgical modalities relies on patient\u2010 and surgeon\u2010related factors, and the rate of success is high across different interventions in treating these complex
