The assessment of phonatory and ventilatory functions in patients after microsurgery for Reinke's edema.

Background: Short and long-term results of microsurgical treatment with the mini-microflap technique in patients with Reinke's edema (RE) were assessed based on the phonatory and ventilatory functions of the larynx.

Objectives: To assess the short and long-term results of microsurgical treatment with the mini-microflap technique in patients with RE based on the phonatory and ventilatory functions of the larynx.
