Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Perpendikuläre Gefäßveränderungen (PGV) sind Marker der tumorinduzierten Neoangiogenese der Stimmlippen. Die Kontaktendoskopie mit Narrow Band Imaging (KE-NBI) ermöglicht eine detaillierte Analyse solcher Gefäßveränderungen.
Ziel der Arbeit
In dieser Arbeit wurde das Potenzial der KE-NBI bei der Diagnostik benigner, dy...
Transoral endoscopic laryngeal surgery (TEC) is typically used as a cervical tissue-sparing and function-preserving surgical procedure. Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) in particular has been pushing the boundaries towards transoral resection in recent years. Nevertheless, there are still limitations to this approach. Transcervical surgery is then...
Zusammenfassung
Tumoren des Kehlkopfes können sowohl die Stimmfunktion und die Atmung als auch den Schluckvorgang erheblich beeinträchtigen. Das übergeordnete Ziel der rekonstruktiven chirurgischen Behandlung von laryngealen Tumoren ist, den Tumor suffizient zu resezieren und gleichzeitig die Auswirkungen der Behandlung auf Stimme, Atmung und Schlu...
This article is intended to give an overview of the surgery for laryngeal malignancies and the current state of transoral endoscopic laryngeal surgery. The current therapy concepts in transoral endoscopic laryngeal surgery are presented in combination with the various possibilities of reconstruction. The adequate oncological treatment under functio...
Purpose
Flexible transnasal endoscopy is a common examination technique for the evaluation of laryngeal lesions, while the use of narrow band imaging (NBI) has been reported to enhance the diagnostic value of white light endoscopy (WLE). The purpose of this study is to assess observer variability and diagnostic value of both modalities and investig...
Modern endoscopic imaging techniques make it possible to detect tumor diseases of the upper respiratory and digestive tract and treat them minimally invasive - with a good oncologic outcome and maintaining the functionality of the tissue.Horizontal techniques permit the inspection of big mucous membrane surfaces, searching vor areas suspicious of d...
Immobility of the vocal folds may have different aetiologies and, consequently, may impact differently on voice function, swallowing and breathing. Vocal fold immobility mostly occurs secondary to paralysis, paresis or palsy of the nerves innervating the larynx, tumours, scarring or pathological changes of the arycricothyroid joint and interaryteno...
Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund Postoperativer Schmerz nach Tonsillektomie (TE) kann in der Regel durch die Gabe von Analgetika aus der Gruppe der nicht steroidalen Antirheumatika (NSAR) suffizient behandelt werden. Bei einigen Patienten besteht jedoch eine außergewöhnlich therapieresistente Schmerzsymptomatik, welche zudem häufig einseitig stärker aus...
Background:
Recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a rare, chronic disease of viral etiology which is characterized by multiple, recurrent growth of papillomas in the aerodigestive tract.
Materials and methods:
The surgical outcomes and the recurrence rates of 106 patients with RRP of the larynx were analyzed. The patients were treated at...

Die Anwendung von „narrow band imaging“ (NBI) sowie weitere technische Entwicklungen bezüglich der Auflösung und Darstellung von endoskopischen Bildern haben die Laryngologie in den letzten 10 Jahren revolutioniert. Die Diagnostik und Therapie von Dysplasien und Frühkarzinomen ist bedeutend einfacher geworden. Auch bei benignen laryngealen Läsionen...
The various stages of tumor growth are characterized by typical epithelial, vascular, and secondary connective tissue changes. Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) endoscopy is a minimally invasive imaging technique that presents vascular structures in particular at a higher contrast than white light endoscopy alone. In combination with high-resolution image...
No clinical standard procedure has yet been defined to quantify the vascular pattern of vocal folds. Subjective classification trials have shown a lot of promise. Narrow band imaging (NBI) as an endoscopic imaging tool is useful, because it shows the vascular structure clearer than white light endoscopy (WL) alone. Endoscopic images of 74 human voc...
Endoscopy of the upper aerodigestive tract (UADT) has been influenced by different innovations over the last two decades. The use of chip-on-the-tip rigid or flexible endoscopes was a change in endoscopic function. The next step was the increase of resolution as well as the introduction of high-definition (HD) imaging especially in flexible endosco...
The present article gives an overview of the current state of laryngeal surgery of benign lesions without claiming completeness and with a focus on the ENT board exam. Laryngeal procedures are highly endoscopic and microscopic based. New instruments and high-resolution endoscopic imaging techniques may substitute the typical Kleinsasser approach in...
In the last decades new endoscopic tools have been developed to improve the diagnostic work-up of vocal fold lesions in addition to normal laryngoscopy, i.e., contact endoscopy, autofluorescence, narrow band imaging and others. Better contrasted and high definition images offer more details of the epithelial and superficial vascular structure of th...

The present work aims at a systematic pathogenetic description of perpendicular vascular changes in the vocal folds. Unlike longitudinal vascular changes, like ectasia and meander, perpendicular vascular changes can be observed in bening lesions. They predominantly occur as typical vascular loops in exophytic lesions, especially in recurrent respir...
Hintergrund: Derzeit existiert keine valide Klassifikation von beginnenden Gefäßveränderungen der Stimmlippen. Wir testeten deshalb ein neues Klassifikationsmodell sichtbarer, beginnender, vaskulärer Veränderungen der Stimmlippen.
Material und Methoden: 3 Gutachtern wurden 168 indirekte larynxendoskopische Aufnahmen der Stimmlippen als 84 Weißlicht...
Hintergrund: National und international gibt es unterschiedliche Vorstellungen und Konzepte zur Diagnostik und Therapie von Dysphonien bei Kindern. Die in verschiedenen Publikationen vertretenen Auffassungen hinsichtlich der Behandlung reichen vom Abwarten einer Selbstheilung („wait and see“) über Phonochirurgie (z. B. von Stimmlippenknötchen) bis...
Background: There are nationally and internationally different opinions about and no guidelines available for diagnostics, treatment and management of dysphonia in childhood. For vocal nodules, for example, and non-organic dysphonia, different opinions range from wait and see to training interventions, psychotherapy and phonosurgery. Aims: The purp...
In recent decades, the endoscopic methods and technologies for laryngeal examination have improved so much that not only epithelial changes, but also vascular changes are recognizable at earlier stages. When comparing newer and older literature, the associated increasingly differentiated descriptions of such visible vascular changes of the vocal fo...
Hoarseness can be the leading symptom of dysphonia. In combination with impaired vocal performance and subjective voice-related discomfort, it can represent an individually different handicap for patients and lead to limited participation in social and professional life. Since the reasons for dysphonia may be not only functional but also organic wi...
Glottal gaps can be either physiological or pathological. The latter are multifactorial, predominantly organic in origin and occasionally functional. Organic causes include vocal fold paralysis or scarring, as well as a deficiency or excess of tissue. In addition to loss of the mucosal wave, the degree of hoarseness is primarily determined by the c...
Die Stimme ist, wie auch Atmung und Artikulation, ein wesentlicher Faktor beim Sprechen. Über sie wird ein Grossteil zusätzlicher, meist unbewusst gesendeter In-formationen transportiert. Diese wiederum geben Auskunft über die psychische, emotionelle und gesundheitliche Situation der sprechenden Person. Dieser Umstand muss besonders im Lehrberuf Be...
