Abstract
Almost all patients of polypoid vocal cord are treated surgically at our hospital, and half of these patients were reduced their voice to clear within a few weeks after surgery (rapid voice recovering group), but a few months are necessary for the rest patients (gradual voice recovering group). We compare these two groups, by some clinical parameters and report. Over 60 years patients belong to the gradual group except one patients and all of 40s patients belong to the rapid group. More than half of patients of unilateral lesions or Yonekawa' type I, II belong to the rapid group. Although, regarding to pre-surgical voice examinations, these are no difference between two groups.
