Quantitative study of voice dysfunction after thyroidectomy.
BACKGROUND Up to 80% of patients without a recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy report alteration in their voice after a thyroid procedure. The aims of this study were (1) to quantify voice changes after thyroid operation; (2) to correlate the changes to the extent of operation; and (3) to correlate voice changes to intraoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve swelling. METHODS Patients undergoing tot...
متن کاملFunctional voice outcomes after thyroidectomy: an assessment of the Dsyphonia Severity Index (DSI) after thyroidectomy.
BACKGROUND The Dysphonia Severity Index (DSI) is an objective multiparametric acoustic calculation of vocal function; however, its changes after thyroidectomy have not yet been described. METHODS Patient-reported symptoms, as well as auditory perceptual, acoustic, and videolaryngostroboscopic (VLS) data, were collected prospectively before and after thyroidectomy. Voice outcomes (normal versu...
متن کاملVoice Assessment Before and After Phonetic Voice and Pronunciation Exercises
The research objective has been to confirm the efficiency of phonetic voice and pronunciation exercises. The results of listeners' assessment have then been compared to the objective parameters f0, shimmer and jitter, as well as to the spectra energy on the basis of LTASS. The dissimilarity index (SDDD) has been calculated to compare the spectra before and after the exercises. Voices that have ...
متن کاملVoice changes after thyroidectomy without recurrent laryngeal nerve injury.
BACKGROUND Injury of the inferior laryngeal nerve is not the only cause of voice alteration after thyroidectomy; many patients notice minimal changes immediately after operation, without evidence of inferior laryngeal nerve damage. We hypothesized that there may be other causes for voice modification, such as injuries of the superior laryngeal nerve, prethyroid strap muscles, and cricothyroid m...
متن کاملVoice changes after thyroidectomy: role of the external laryngeal nerve.
Hitherto voice changes have been regarded as an infrequent complication of thyroidectomy and damage to the recurrent laryngeal nerve has been given as their major cause. Voice function was assessed in 325 patients after thyroidectomy. Permanent changes occurred in 35 (25%) after subtotal thyroidectomy and in 19 (11%) after lobectomy. The commonest cause of voice change appeared to be injury to ...
