ABSTRACT
Laryngeal framework surgery is an umbrella term for all phonosurgical procedures by which the cartilaginous structure of the larynx and thereby the position and tension of the vocal folds are changed. The aim is to improve the voice. By far the best known and most frequently performed operation is thyroplasty type 1 according to Isshiki, also known as medialization thyroplasty, which is indica ted for treatment of glottic insufficiency. Although the first medialization thyroplasty was successfully performed by Payr in Germany in 1915, more than 100 years later, it is still not widely used in Germany.
