Vocal quality 10 years after radiotherapy for early glottic cancer
Abstract
The voices of 12 patients who had been treated by radiotherapy for Stage I squamous carcinoma of the glottis at least 10 years previously, and who had shown no signs of recurrent disease, were assessed. A speech therapist detected significant abnormalities in all patients, but these did not detract from the overall high satisfaction of the patients with their voice quality.
