aspirant maneuver, a procedure used in making x-ray films of the laryngopharyngeal area. The patient exhales completely, then slowly inhales while making a harsh, high-pitched sound. The maneuver adducts the vocal cords so the ventricle of the larynx is clearly visible in the x-ray. How to thank TFD for its existence?
