目的:回顾小儿声带麻痹(VFP)的经验,特别强调病因,相关气道病理条件,治疗和预后结果。设计:对一组VFP患者进行回顾性病例回顾。单位:三级转诊中心。患者:从1980年到1994年的14年间,在英国伦敦大奥蒙德街儿童医院连续抽样102例VFP患者。结果:单侧VFP (52% [n = 53])和双侧VFP (48% [n = 49])的分布几乎相等。子宫源性原因占43% (n = 44),其次是特发性VFP (35% [n = 36]),神经系统原因(16% [n = 16]),最后是出生创伤(5% [n = 5])。66% (n = 23)行气管切开术的患者出现了相关的上气道病理状况。只有57% (n = 28)的患儿需要气管切开术。预后因病因而异,其中神经源性VFP恢复率最高(71%[5/7]),医源性VFP恢复率最低(46%[12/26])。结论:特发性双侧VFP可在长达11年的间隔后恢复;这在考虑这些患者的侧化手术时具有重要意义。
Objective: To review our experience of pediatric vocal fold paralysis (VFP), with particular emphasis on etiological factors, associated airway pathologic conditions, and treatment and prognostic outcomes.Design: Retrospective case review of a cohort of patients presenting with VFP.Setting: Tertiary referral center.Patients: A consecutive sample of 102 patients presenting with VFP to Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, London, England, over a 14-year period from 1980 to 1994.Results: There was an almost equal distribution of unilateral (52% [n = 53]) and bilateral (48% [n = 49]) VFP. latrogenic causes (43% [n = 44]) formed the largest group, followed by idiopathic VFP (35% [n = 36]), neurological causes (16% [n = 16]), and finally birth trauma (5% [n = 5]). Associated upper airway pathologic conditions were noted in 66% (n = 23) of patients who underwent tracheotomy. Tracheotomy was necessary in only 57% (n = 28) of children with bilateral VFP. Prognosis was variable depending upon the cause, with neurological VFP hating the highest rate of recovery (71% [5/7]) and iatrogenic VFP the lowest rate (46% [12/26]).Conclusion: Recovery after an interval of up to 11 years was seen in idiopathic bilateral VFP; this has significant implications when considering lateralization procedures in these patients.
