Prevention Prevention of laryngeal edema, and thereby decreasing the incidence of extubation failure, is obviously desirable. Therapy Maintaining the airway, adequate oxygenation and relieving distress associated with obstruction are primary treatment goals. Figure 3. Abbreviations PES: post-extubation stridor.

Sandhu and colleagues [ 26 ]. Diagnosis of Reinke's edema is made by looking at the irritation in the back of the throat that is causing symptoms. The cause of the condition needs to be identified and treated to address the edema. If you smoke, stop. Depending on the severity of your acid reflux, you may need help addressing that condition. Skip to main content.
Centers Voice Center Conditions We Treat Reinke's edema Reinke's edema The non-muscle part of the vocal cord, sometimes called the vocal fold, right under its surface, is called Reinke's space.
Reinke's edema risk factors and causes Women are more likely than men to get the condition. Hoarseness, a sensation of tickling, rawness, and a constant urge to clear the throat may occur. Symptoms vary with the severity of the inflammation. Fever, malaise, dysphagia, and throat pain may occur in more severe infections. Laryngeal edema, although rare, may cause stridor and dyspnea. In this endoscope view of the inflamed larynx voice box of a patient suffering from laryngitis, the vocal cords v-shaped, lower left are swollen.
With reflux, there is swelling of the inner lining of the larynx and redness of the arytenoids. This endoscope view of the larynx voice box of a patient shows leukoplakia keratosis, white, center of the vocal cords due to laryngitis. Leukoplakia is a thickening of the body tissues that develops in response to chronic irritation.
Cough suppressants, voice rest, and steam inhalations relieve symptoms and promote resolution of acute laryngitis. Smoking cessation and treatment of acute or chronic bronchitis may relieve laryngitis.
Depending on the presumed cause, specific treatments to control gastroesophageal reflux, bulimia, or drug-induced laryngitis may be beneficial.
