| dc.description.abstract | This study was designed: to evaluate the vocal function in the patients with supracricoid laryngectomy (SCL) compared with normal subjects; to determine the factors affecting voice (such as number of arytenoid(s) preserved and movement of larynx and tongue base); and to determine the correlations between videolaryngostroboscopy, acoustic and perceptual parameters. Ten patients who underwent SCL with cricohyoidopexy for primary laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma were included into the study. Vocal function was investigated by means or videolaryngostroboscopy. Voice quality was assessed by means of objective acoustic analysis and subjective perceptual ratings by trained raters. Aberrant, incompetent, and rough mucosal wave was observed in the anterior and superior surfaces of arytenoids(s), the inferior part of tongue base and the lateral walls of the hypopharynx. The acoustic parameters were found to be significantly different from those of normal subjects. The values of perceptual scores were approximately within 50 per cent of normal range. The number of arytenoids spared did not affect acoustic or perceptual measurements. A rough, breathy, unpleasant but intelligible and acceptable voice could be obtained after SCL with cricohyoidopexy. | |
