Arytenoid edema is not a well-described complication of thyroplasty. We report a case of exuberant arytenoid edema following thyroplasty in a 33-year-old female. The diagnosis was made post-operative day 1, the patient was immediately started on a 6-day course of methylprednisone with voice rest. The arytenoid edema completely resolved within 1 week.
杓状软骨水肿并非甲状软骨成形术的常见并发症。我们报告了一例 33 岁女性患者在甲状软骨成形术后出现杓状软骨过度水肿的病例。术后第 1 天做出诊断，患者立即开始接受为期 6 天的甲基强的松龙治疗，并进行嗓音休息。杓状软骨水肿在 1 周内完全消退。
