Regeneration of Vocal Fold Mucosa Using Tissue-Engineered Structures with Oral Mucosal Cells
Fig 7
Transplantation of an organotypic cultured vocal fold to the mucosa-deficient vocal fold.
After laryngofissure was performed, the unilateral membranous portion of the vocal fold was resected (A) to the extent shown in Fig 2. The organotypic cultured vocal fold was transplanted to the mucosa-deficient vocal fold (B). TC: median cut surface of thyroid cartilage, CC: cricoid cartilage, Tr: trachea, ET: endotracheal tube.
