Currently, Bilateral Vocal Fold Immobility (BVCP) is often treated by transoral CO2 laser-assisted transverse cordotomy. Still, this procedure can lead to subsequent scarring at the wound bed, resulting in re-narrowing of the airway and poor voice. Transverse cordotomy with thyroarytenoid myectomy may promote faster healing and may limit scarring and restenosis.
