Resumen
Laryngeal Electromyography (LEMG) is a diagnostic test commonly used in patients with vocal fold movement disorder The aim of this study is to describe LEMG in patients with vocalfold immobility. A total of 55 dysphonic patients with vocal fold immobility diagnosed by laryngeal endoscopy were grouped according to probable clinical cause: 1) unknown; 2) traumatic; or 3) tumoral compression. They were submitted to LEMG by percutaneous insertion of concentric needle electrode. LEMG was conclusive in all patients and showed a majority with peripheral nerve injury. LEMG diagnosed peripheral nerve damage in 25 group 1, 12 group 2, and 11 group 3 patients. LEMG was normal in 4 patients, suggesting cricoarytenoid joint fixation. Central nervous system disorders was suggested in 2 and myopathic pattern in 1. As the major cause of vocal fold immobility is peripheral nerve damage, LEMG is an important test to confirm diagnosis. 44 6 371 374 Brin, M.F., Fahn, S., Blitzer, A., Ramig, L., Stewart, C., Movement Disorders of the Larynx (1992) Neurologic Disorders of the Larynx, , Blitzer, A., Brin, M., Sasaki, C.T., Fahn, S., Harris, K.S., Thieme Medical Publishings, New York Desmedt, J.E., Borenstein, S., Collateral innervation of muscle fibres by motor axons of dystrophic motor units (1973) Nature, 246, pp. 500-501 Dumitru, D., Electrodiagnostic medicine (1995), Hanley-Belfus Mosby, PhiladelphiaFaaborg-Andersen, K., Electromyographic investigation of intrinsic laryngeal muscles in humans (1957) Acta Physiol.
