15. Early diagnosis and stage classification of vocal cord abductor paralysis in patients with multiple system atrophy.
OBJECTIVES: Vocal cord abductor paralysis (VCAP) is a life threatening complication which may cause nocturnal sudden death in patients with multiple system atrophy. However, the early diagnosis of VCAP is often difficult to make on routine laryngoscopy performed during wakefulness, as stridor, which is the sole symptom of VCAP in the early stage, develops on

16. Vocal cord paralysis in the Shy-Drager syndrome.
Eight out of 12 unselected patients with Shy-Drager syndrome were found to have severe bilateral paresis of vocal cord abduction by fibre-optic laryngoscopy. This commonly presented as increased snoring followed by episodes of inspiratory and expiratory stridor and sometimes by sleep apnoea. Respiratory failure eventually developed in four cases and was reve

17. Preservation of recurrent laryngeal nerve invaded by differentiated thyroid cancer.
OBJECTIVE: This study was undertaken to determine whether the recurrent laryngeal nerve involved in differentiated thyroid carcinoma could be preserved. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Few investigations have provided definitive results concerning preservation of the recurrent laryngeal nerve involved in thyroid cancer. Complete excision with resection of the recur

18. Localization of the Gene for Distal Hereditary Motor Neuronopathy VII (dHMN-VII) to Chromosome 2q14
Distal hereditary motor neuronopathy type VII (dHMN-VII) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by distal muscular atrophy and vocal cord paralysis. We performed a genomewide linkage search in a large Welsh pedigree with dHMN-VII and established linkage to chromosome 2q14. Analyses of a second family with dHMN-VII confirmed the location of the gene
