Abstract
Background: Humanity has appreciated the importance and power of the human voice. Voice disorders like benign, malignant lesions of vocal cord affect the voice quality and also can have a devastating effect on daily functioning and quality of life. These lesions can be diagnosed and treated with microlaryngoscopy. Micro-laryngoscopy is a procedure for visualization of a magnified view of the voicebox (larynx) with the help of a laryngoscope assisted with an operating microscope for precise laryngeal surgery. Speech parameters helps in voice quality assessment for vocal cord lesions. Method: We have studied 30 cases of benign vocal cord lesion by simple random sampling for two years which got operated with microlaryngoscopic conventional surgery. Their pre and post-operative assessment is done with respect to speech parameters like Maximum Phonation Time, Voice Handicap Index and GRBAS Score. Clinical history and rigid Hopkins 700 also helped in diagnosing of benign vocal cord lesions.
