VOICE AND SPEECH


DISORDER
Topics covered
1.dysphonia plica ventricularis
2.functional aphonia
3.phonosthenia
4.hyponasality(rhinolalia clausa)
5.hypernasality(rhimolalia aperta)
6.puberphonia
7.vocal cord nodule
8.others
Q1.in dysphonia plica ventricularis,
sound is produced by.................
a. vestibular folds
b.vocal folds
c.tongue
d.ventricle of larynsk
Ans 1.....................a

false vocal cords= ventricular folds= vestibular
folds(present avobe true vocal volds)

they hv minimal role in normal phonation

in this condition voice is= rough, low
pitched,unpleasant

diagonesed by aproximation of fase vocal folds
on INDIRECT LARYNGOSCOPY

this cond is also known as ventricular
dysphonia
Q2.pitch of persons voice depends
upon fundamental frequency that
depends upon larynsk, in normal
adult male its avg value is

a.125 hz

b.210 hz

c. 300 hz

d. 400 hz
ans ..a

FUNDAMENTAL FREQUENCY IS PRODUCED BY
LARYNSK in normal adults its value is

MALE-125 hz

FEMALE-210 hz

CHILDREN-300 hz
Q3.what is depth kymography...?

it is an imaging method to visualise complex
movement of vocal cord

phonation is produced by occilation of vocal
folds which is due to pressure diff across
vocal folds, normal minimum value is- 3-5 cm
H2O
Q4. true about functional aphonia
all except.........

1.seen in emotionally labile female of age 15
-30 yrs

2.speech therapy is imp fr its treatment

3.vocal cord remain in abducted position on
attempt of phonation

4. on coughing vocal cord remain abducted

5. aphonia is sudden in onset
ans is 2. and 4.

treatment is done by reassurance and
psychotherapy .speech therapy has no role

vocal cord canbe adducted during coughing ie
adducter function is normal
Q.5.rhinolalia clausa is seen in all
except........

1.nasal growth

2.adenoids

3.nasal polyp

4. palatal paralysis
ans 4

rhinolalia clausa is seen when nose or
nasopharynsk is blocked

eg nasal growths(polyp)

nasopharyngioma

adenoids

allergic rhiitis,common cold
note: clausa vs aperta

rhinolalia clausa= hyponasality= nose ka kam
role hai= nose me obstruction hai

rhinolalia aperta=hypernasality= nose ka role
jada= abnormal connection bw oral &nasal
cavity eg palatal paralysis
Q.6. a patient of phonasthenia
shows elliptual space between
vocal cords on indirect
laryngoscopy, muscle involved is..

a.interaretenoid

b.thyroaretenoid

c.cricothyroid

d. all of avove
ans ...b

phonosthenia is weakness or easy fatigability
of voice due to weakness of thyroaretenoid
,interaretenoid or both

on indirect laryngoscopy signs space bw vocal
cords is seen if its,

elliptual= thyroaretenoid

triangular gap bw post commisure=
interaretenoid

keyhole= both(q)
Q7.true about vocal cord nodule
all except..............

a.localised epithelial hyperplasia

b.symmetric on both cord

c.male> female

d. most common age group 20 to 30

e. pinkish white nodule at jonction of anterior
2/3 & posterior 1/3
ans... e

most common site of...

a..vocal nodule...junction of ant 1/3 and posterior
2/3

b..tb...posterir part of larynx

c..lupus..anterior larynx( epiglottis>aryepiglottic fold>
ventricular band)

d..syphills..anterior larynx ie epiglottis and
ariepiglottic fold

e..leprosy.. anterior larynx ie epiglottis & ariepiglottic
fold


h..vocal polyp..no difinitive site

i..intubation granuloma..post 1/3 & ant 2/3
junction of vocal cord
Q 8. treatment of spasmodic
dysphonia is .........

a. type 1 thyroplasty

b. type 2 thyroplasty

c. type 3 thyroplasty

d. type 4 thyroplasty
ans b

type 1 = medialisation of vocal cord = in
unilateral vocal cord paralysis, atropy,sulcus
vocalis

type 2= lateralisation = spasmodic dysphonia

type 3 = shortening or relaxation of vocal cord
= for lowering of vocal pitch in puberphonia

type 4 = lenghtening of vocal cord for
elevating pitch of voice as in androphonia
Q9. pachydermia laryngis is
treated by.....

1) cordectomy

2) microsurgical' excision

3) both '

4) none
ans 2

treatment of ptachydermia laryngis is
microsurgical excision of hyperplastic
epithelium and cordectomy has no role in its
treatment
