Clinical and Electromyographic Characteristics of Pediatric Laryngeal Dyskinesia
LD is prevalent among LMD and is mostly self-limiting. We noted asymmetry of LEMG grades between the 2 sides of the larynx, male predominance, and functional deficits in sleep and swallowing. The diagnosis requires a complete endoscopic exam with LEMG. Conflating this entity with bilateral laryngeal paralysis has likely impacted the documented epidemiology and natural history.
