ABSTRACT

Pediatric vocal ford paralysis is a vocal cord movement disorder caused by damage to the pediatric laryngeal motor nerves.It is mainly characterized by voice, breathing,and swallowing difficulties,and in severe cases,it can lead to choking in affected children. Currently, the diagnosis and treatment of this condition pose a significant challenge for pediatric otolaryngologists, as the goal is to minimize damage to the vocal folds and laryngeal framework.In order to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric vocal cord paralysis, the Pediatric Otolaryngology Committee of the Chinese Medical Association,in collaboration with multiple children's medical centers nationwide, have formulated this consensus document.
