After ventral laryngotomy was performed, the vocal cords were sharply excised, and the incised mucosal edges were apposed with 4-0 glycomer 631 suture in a simple continuous pattern. The thyroid cartilage was apposed with 3-0 polypropylene suture in a simple continuous pattern.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>RESULTS<\/jats:bold> With the epiglottis closed, baseline median LAR was 27.6 cm H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O\/L\/s (range, 21.2 to 30.6 cm H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O\/L\/s), which did not differ significantly from the median LAR after bilateral ventriculocordectomy (24.7 cm H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O\/L\/s [range, 20.6 to 27.7 cm H<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>O\/L\/s]).

Therefore, it may not be an effective treatment for laryngeal paralysis. It also did not affect LAR with a closed epiglottis, which may indicate protection against aspiration pneumonia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2460\/ajvr.78.12.1444","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,28]],"date-time":"2017-11-28T14:29:50Z","timestamp":1511879390000},"page":"1444-1448","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Effect
