The textbook "Pathophysiology and Surgical Treatment of Unilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis" by Eiji Yumoto provides a comprehensive analysis of the pathophysiology and surgical treatment of unilateral vocal fold paralysis. It is aimed at professionals such as ENT doctors and speech therapists who deal with the treatment of patients with paralytic dysphonia. The book addresses both fundamental and clinical aspects of reinnervation to support the restoration of patients' normal voice. It highlights the development of phonosurgical techniques since the 1970s and the challenges associated with regaining the original voice. The importance of immediate reconstruction of the recurrent laryngeal nerve during tumor removal, which has proven to be effective, is particularly emphasized. The innovative technique of nerve-muscle pedicle implantation is presented as a novel approach to improving voice quality. The book offers valuable insights into current surgical procedures and their outcomes.
