Abstract
The theory for utilizing the reinnervation procedure is that when glottic closure improves and a less breathy vocalization occurs, then the larynx is better equipped to protect the lower airway and avoid aspiration. Our cases demonstrate stronger voice and improved swallow function, with normalization of modified barium swallow evaluation, at approximately 6-months post reinnervation.
