Abstract
Vocal nodules are benign tumefactions on the vocal cords due to excessive or improper use of the voice. They vary in size, shape, location, and histologic composition and are essentially a clinical rather than a pathologic entity. High-speed motion pictures at 5,000 frames per second revealed that they disturb the normal vibratory pattern in the same manner as benign tumors of the vocal cords generally. Treatment consists of vocal rest, vocal reeducation, and surgical operation, singly or in combination.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
