Özet

Though the surgical technique of medialization laryngoplasty (ML) has been standardized today, the ideal implant has not been well-defined yet. Various non-absorbable materials such as autogenous cartilage, silicone, hydroxylapatite, Goretex, and titanium have been used for ML Titanium implant ML is a new technique and any complication has not been reported so far. Core-tex and silicone implants have been used more longer and both of them are accepted safe and easy to handle materials. Extrusion of Gore-ten or silicone material after ML has been rarely reported. We present a case of a 38-year-old man with history of silicone and then Gore-tex implant extrusion after ML Titanium implant was performed on the patient. Although rare, the possibility of silicone and Gore-ten extrusion after MT operation must not be ignored. Titanium implant may be a good alternative in such cases.
