ABSTRACT

Data in this chapter may be updated by Medline, Embase and the Cochrane Library searches using the keywords: voice disorders, vocal cords, structural, lesions, polyps, nodules, varices, haemorrhage, sulcus, cyst, inflammatory, reflux, muscle tension, dysphonia and Reinke’s oedema. Unfortunately, there have been very few good quality, randomized, controlled studies in this area and most of the evidence is level 2–4.
