OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: Applying the principles of misdirected nerve regeneration to the larynx, Roger Crumley in 1989 coined the term laryngeal synkinesis (LS) which he later (2000) classified into 4 types (type I - good voice, type II - involuntary twitches and poor voice, type III - adduction during inspiration, type IV - abduction during phonation). Neurophysiological data were not available for all LS patients at that time. The current study was undertaken to utilize and test the Crumley classification for a clinical interrater comparison and, secondly, compare predicted with actual laryngeal electromyography (LEMG) results.
STUDY DESIGN: Descriptive study.
METHODS: Laryngoscopic and LEMG data of patients with unilateral vocal fold paralysis (VFP) of 6 months duration or longer were combined for retrospective evaluation. Forty-five data sets were available for laryngoscopic classification by two local laryngologists and by Roger Crumley. Twenty-three data sets with complete thyroarytenoid (TA) and posterior cricoarytenoid (PCA) - EMG data were used to compare predicted with actual LEMG results.
RESULTS: Local laryngologists were able to classify 24 of 45, Crumley 30 of 45 cases into one of the 4 synkinesis types. There was substantial agreement between examiners (Cohens Kappa 0.66 [P < .001]). Comparison of predicted and actual LEMG data showed only moderate agreement. EMG sykinesis rates were lower in TA than in PCA and highest in Crumley type I cases.
CONCLUSION: The Crumley classification is helpful in describing and understanding synkinesis. It does not always correlate predictably with actual LEMG data. A complete LEMG mapping of all intrinsic muscles may improve understanding of chronic VFP.
