Abstract

Objective: Endolaryngeal microsurgery is the fundamental treatment of vocal cord polyps. After surgical treatment, the changes in the voice quality can be measured by various scales that examine the audio perception of the voice and/or by objective voice analyses done with the help of a software program. The aim of this study was to evaluate the vocal performance of the patients with vocal cord polyps operated with endolaryngeal microsurgery.
