Background: The etiologies of unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP) could be highly varied. It could be idiopathic or related to surgery, infection, radiation, and tumor. Among these causes of UVFP, surgery-related and idiopathic UVFP were the most well studied. However, the clinical characteristics of tumor-related UVFP have been discussed in only a few studies. Therefore, we evaluated the clinical and electromyographic characteristics of tumor-related UVFP and compared them with those of surgery-related UVFP. Methods: Laryngeal electromyography (LEMG) was performed in the thyroarytenoid-lateral cricoarytenoid muscle complexes and the cricothyroid muscles. The Short Form-36 quality-of-life questionnaire (SF-36) was applied to evaluate the patient’s quality of life. The LEMG and SF-36 findings were compared between the surgery-related and tumor-related groups. Results: Among the...
