I looked in my Stedman's ENT and I didn't find vocalis senilis, but I did

find vocalis sulcus. I didn't find the Yoshiki either. I do ENT sometimes,

but these terms are unfamiliar to me. Sorry I can't be of more help.

The only abnormality we can find is moderate ___________(s/l vocalis

seniles). The options of fat injection into the cords, which would require

a general anesthesia, versus a ____________(s/l Yoshiki-type) thyroplasty

under intravenous sedation were reviewed with the patient.

I cannot document a vocalis seniles nonreactive the Yoshiki thyroplasty.

Any ideas?

Found in Vera Pyle's CMT:

Isshiki thyroplasty type I (ITTI)—a procedure to treat unilateral vocal cord

paralysis. It uses a Silastic implant placed in a window of the thyroid ala

between the inner and outer perichondrium causing lateral compression of the

vocal cord.

Maybe that's what you're looking for?
