Voice Disorders and Vocal Cord Surgery

Voice disorders, often stemming from issues at the vocal cord level, can sometimes necessitate surgical intervention. These surgeries, collectively known as phonosurgery, aim to improve voice function and address various vocal cord conditions. Procedures can range from removing vocal cord lesions to addressing vocal cord paralysis through techniques like laryngoplasty. Microsurgery and laser surgery are common approaches, requiring precision and often followed by a period of vocal rest for optimal healing.
