Non-traumatic fractures of the larynx, including the thyroid cartilage, are rare and can occur when the glottis is closed and intrathoracic pressure suddenly increases. This report describes the case of a 42-year-old man presenting with hoarseness and pain when swallowing and a diagnosis of non-traumatic thyroid cartilage fracture following sudden neck movement, highlighting the importance of recognizing atypical mechanisms of laryngeal injury.

Eur Arch Otorhinolaryngol

March 2025

Department of Otolaryngology, The Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, No.88 Jiefang Road, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, 310009, China.

Purpose: To introduce a novel technique utilizing a pedicled ventricular mucosal flap (PVMF) following one-stage, radical resection of T1b glottic cancer with anterior commissure involvement by transoral laser surgery, and to explore the oncological and functional outcomes, as well as its efficacy in preventing postoperative anterior glottic web formation.

Methods: Twelve patients diagnosed with T1bN0M0 glottic cancer involving anterior commissure underwent one-stage, radical resection of tumor by transoral laser surgery combined with PVMF between January 2021 and June 2023. The relative vocal fold length and Voice Handicap Index-10(VHI-10) scores at 6 months postoperatively were measured.
