Systematic Review to Define the Different Surgical and Non-Surgical Lines of Treatment for Reinke’s Edema

Abstract

There are several options for treating Reinke’s edema that ranges from non-surgical conservative procedures which include voice therapy, steroid injection and hyaluronidase injection to the surgical procedures which includes micro- laryngeal phonosurgery, laser surgery using CO2 laser, photoangilotic laser and microdebrider. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review to define the different surgical and non-surgical lines of treatment of Reinke’s edema to determine the most effective for managing dysphonia associated with Reinke’s edema.
