ABSTRACT

Background and Objectives: Vocal polyps, nodules and cysts are representative chronic diseases of vocal folds, and has no different histopathology. Our aim of study is to evaluate the efficacy of voice therapy in the management of benign laryngeal disease. Subjects and Method: We selected 60 patients with benign lesion of vocal cord, and then divided them to two group at random. We taught patients in group 1 vocal hygiene and patients in group 2 both vocal hygiene and accent method. In each group, we measured self-perceptual analysis, acoustic and aerodynamic analysis in pre-and post therapy. Then, the results were analysed using paired t-test. Results: The results of voice analysis, such as self-perceptual analysis, acoustic and aerodynamic analysis, were revealed statistically different between pre-and post-therapeutic examination in both group. especially, Group 2 showed superior results to Group 1 but not significant. Conclusion: Accent method combined with vocal hygiene is one of excellent treatment for benign lesions of vocal cord. (J Clinical Otolaryngol 2007;18:195–201)
