Abstract
in English, Chinese

As narrow band imaging（NBI） technology and research for vocal fold leukoplakia have advanced, the diagnostic and therapeutic paradigms for this condition have evolved significantly. This paper provides insight into the challenges of clinical management of vocal fold leukoplakia, drawing on our empirical findings to clarify the etiology, differential diagnosis, pathological grading, morphological characteristics, and recent therapeutic developments of this condition.

摘要: 随着窄带成像技术（narrow band imaging，NBI）的发展以及对声带白斑研究的日益增多，声带白斑的诊断和治疗理念也发生了变化。本文针对声带白斑诊治中存在的一些问题进行深入探讨，并结合我院的临床经验，对声带白斑的病因、鉴别诊断、病理分级、形态特征以及治疗新进展等方面进行阐述和分享。.
