[Clinical and pathological analysis of 1116 cases of vocal cord polyp].

The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical and pathological features of vocal cord polyp. Retrospective analyzed the clinical and pathological data of 1116 cases in vocal cord polyp patients treated with suspension microlaryngoscopic surgery. The bradycardia was observed in 170 cases(15.2%) during the suspension of laryngoscope under general anesthesia. In this case，the suspension was stopped or the laryngoscope was taken out of mouth and atropine was administrated by intravenous injection. After that, heartbeat gradually accelerated and approached to normal,then the suspension was begun again to complete microlaryngoscopic surgery. Among the 1116 cases,1094(98%) were cured,22(2%) were improved，and no case was invalid. No pharyngeal injury was in 865 cases(77.5%). Mild,moderate and severe palatoglossal arch injury was observed in 139 (12.5%)cases，86(7.7%)cases,and 26 (2.3%) cases，respectively. The incidences of epithelial hyperplasia and dysplasia in vocal cord polyp were 35.3% and 5.0%, respectively. The prevalence rates of epithelial hyperplasia and dysplasia in male and female patients of vocal cord polyp were 76.2%,23.8% ( <0.01) and 78.6%,21.4% ( <0.01),respectively. And the prevalence rates of keratinization and parakeratosis in male and female patients were 93.1%,6.9% ( <0.01) and 93.1%,6.9% ( <0.01),respectively.The incidence of keratinization in patients of no epithelial hyperplasia, epithelial hyperplasia and epithelial dysplasia were 2.1%,18.2% and 30.3%,respectively，with significant difference in pairwise comparison.High incidence of vocal cord polyp is at the age from 31 to 60 years old.Although laryngomicrosurgery is an effective treatment for vocal cord polyp, pharyngeal injury and laryngopharyngeal vagal reflex should be noticed during the operation.In addition,vocal cord polyps in male patients are susceptible to epithelial dysplasia and keratinization.
