Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of hyaluronic acid aerosol in the post-operative treatment of phonosurgical patients with standard therapy. Patients and methods: authors examined two groups of patients undergoing surgery for laryngeal polyps. Group 1 patients received post-operative treatment with aerosol flunisolide and group 2 patients received post-operative treatment with aerosol hyaluronic acid. The results of the treatments were evaluated according to Italian Society of Logopedics and Phoniatrics (SIFEL) protocol. Results: There was a more rapid functional recovery of vocal parameters in patients treated with hyaluronic acid, who obtained good recovery of vocal parameters within 10 days. Conclusion: The study demonstrates the effectiveness of post-operative aerosol hyaluronic acid for recovery of the voice after surgery for laryngeal polyps. Subsequent studies in other diseases are required to validate the post-operative use of hyaluronic acid in laryngeal surgery. |
