Vocal motor control and central auditory impairments in unilateral vocal fold paralysis

ConclusionCombined central vocal motor control and auditory processing impairments in treated UVFP highlight reciprocal interdependency of sensory and motor systems. This pilot study suggests that peripheral motor impairment of the larynx can degrade central auditory processing, which in turn may contribute to vocal motor control impairment. A more complete restoration communicative function in UVFP will require deeper understanding of sensory, motor, and sensorimotor aspects of the human communication loop.Level of Evidence3bLaryngoscope, 2018 (Source: The Laryngoscope)
