Objectives: describe a new and less invasive surgical procedure termed endoscopic assisted arytenoid abduction surgery and to evaluate its outcomes. Study Design: the authors have carrying out a demonstrated prospective study on 5 consecutive surgical patients sustained from endoscopic assited arytenoid abduction surgery at ENT Dep. of UMC HCMC from Mars to August 2014. Methods: The surgery technique involves the placement of permanent adducting sutures around the vocal process (MP) of the arytenoid cartilage using two needles, a penetration needle and a loop needle, under endoscopic guidance. The post-op outcomes directed toward doccumented the surgical time, width of laryngeal cleft, post op. dyspnea, the voice handicap index and patients content.
