Case Study #2 51 year old special education teacher who
uses amplification but reports it is “static-y” “Voice fades” by 11am Frequent coughing and throat clearing Drinks 80+ oz of water and no caffeine Takes multiple asthma and allergy
medications Diagnosed with dysphonia resultant from
true vocal fold scarring secondary to three laser-excision procedures for removal of vocal fold nodules at an outside ENT
Case Study 2: Surgical Complications
Video If surgery is opted for, the procedure
that causes the least degree of damage is called a “microflap” technique.
DO NOT proceed with any surgery that involves “stripping” or “cutting off” the lesion.
Ask specific questions about the surgical techniques your MD uses.
