(a) Rhinofibrolaryngoscopy (RFL) before treatment showing a very light edema of the subglottic region. (b) RFL 10 min after the ophthalmological procedure showed an unmodified picture of the subglottic region. (c) RFL 1 h after the injection showing a clearly visible edema under the right true vocal cord, whereas the contralateral was unchanged. (d) 150 min after the injection, RFL showed a marked edema with a significant increase under the right true vocal cord.
