Longitudinal voice quality changes following Isshiki thyroplasty type I were investigated in a group of 13 patients exhibiting unilateral vocal fold paralysis. Thyroplasty type I medializes the paralyzed fold by using a Silastic implant for external lateral compression of the abducted fold. No perioperative complications were experienced. We observed significantly higher voice fundamental frequency, significantly louder voice intensity, and significantly longer maximum phonation time, both immediately following phonosurgery and up to 3 months postoperatively. Surgical refinements of thyroplasty type I are described.
