Single stage transcutaneous suture fixation of anterior commissure defect using buccal mucosa graft following laser excision (STABLE).

Key Points

• To evaluate the effectiveness of a single-stage reconstruction technique for anterior commissure defects using a buccal mucosa graft.
• Utilized a single-stage transcutaneous suture fixation method
• Applied buccal mucosa graft after laser excision of the defect
• Measured functional outcomes using the Voice Handicap Index (VHI)
• Achieved good healing of anterior commissure defects
• Prevented stenosis effectively
• Demonstrated favorable functional outcomes as indicated by VHI scores
• Provided a cost-effective alternative compared to staged procedures
