Summary

The provider uses a flexible laryngoscope, a tubular instrument with a fiberoptic light source, to look inside the larynx, or voice box, to detect the presence of any abnormalities; he injects one side of the vocal folds with a temporary or permanent filler–type material to enlarge them and treat full or partial paralysis, atrophy (wasting away of tissue), or scarring of the vocal folds.
