Background and Objectives : In general, ambulatory 24-hour pH monitoring is considered the current gold standard for larynogopharyngeal reflux(LPR). There is no validated instrument whose purpose is to document the physical finding and severity of laryngopharyngeal reflux. The purposes of this study are to revaluate the validity and reliability of the reflux finding score(RFS) and to quantify laryngoscopic findings using reflux finding score. Material and Methods : Thirty-three LPR patients confirmed by dual-probe pH monitoring and thirty patients of control were selected. The RFS was documented for each patient with telescopic laryngoscopy before treatment. For test-retest intraobserver reliability assessment, a blinded laryngologists determined the RFS on two separate occasions. To evaluate interobserver reliability assessment, the RFS was determined by t재 different blinded laryngologists. Results : The mean age of the cohort with pH-documented LPR was 45.8 years and the mean RFS was 11.4. The mean age of cotrol subjects was 52 years and the mean RFS was 5.4. The mean RFS for laryngologist no. 1 was 10.8 at the initial screening and 10.9 at the repeat evaluation. The mean FRS for laryngologist no.2 was 11.1 at the intial test and 10.9 at the repeat evaluation. The correlation coefficient for interobserver variability was 0.93 and intraobserver variability was 0.94. Conclusion : The RFS demonstrates excellent inter-and introaobserver reproducibility and is helpful for quantifying laryngeal finding in LPR. We can be 95% certain that an individual with a RFS greater than 7 has LPR.

Background and Objectives : A post-pubescent male classical singer has lower vocal register than a female classical singer. Countertenors who can produce higher vocal register like female classical singers with their falsetto voice and head resonance are recently active. The general purpose of this study is to analyze voice of countertenors and to determine the differences with those of classical singers. Materials and Methods : Four countertenors in Korea were examined using a videostrobos-copy and their voice were analyzed using aerodynamic, acoustic and voice range profile methods. Results and Conclusion : Countertenors could produce elevated fundamental frequency, voice intensity and mean air flow rate using large pulmonary capacity and head voiced falsetto. It means the presence of greater energy in countertenor is due to the more efficient conversion of the air flow to acoustic energy. But, they had unstable amplitude perturbation per each vocal cycle. The results indicated that countertenor is the acoustic products of different laryngeal mechanism with other classical register and it can be recognized as one of the registers of male classical singers.

Background and Objectives : Bowing of the vocal fold, a bowed edge of the vocal fold results from various disorder causes glottic incompetence resulting in voice disorders. The results of treatment were not satisfactory even though a variety of methods of treatment were applied. The goal of this study is to evaluate of efficacy of the non-surgical, voice therapy in patients with vocal fold bowing. Materials and Method : Twenty two patients of vocal fold bowing not resulting from vocal fold palsy and sulcus vocalis were analyzed. After voice therapy and medical treatment, parameters of perceptual, acoustic, aerodynamic analysis and stroboscopic findings were compared those of pretreatment results. Results and Conclusion : Jitter, shimmer and maximal phonation time were significantly improved and subjective satisfaction was improved in 73% of patients. In the videostroboscopic examination, vocal fold gap was decreased in 27% of patents. The result of this study indicates that voice therapy alone has effect in treatment of vocal fold bowing. Voice therapy is one of the mainstay of treatment of vocal fold bowing.

Schwannoma, also known as a neurilemmomas or neurinomas, is benign peripheral nerve sheath tumors arising from the Schwann cells. About 25~45 % of all schwannomas are found in the head and neck region, and the majority are found in the parapharyngeal space. Schwannoma of the larynx is very rare with an incidence of 0.1~1.5% in all benign laryngeal tumors. Recently, we experienced a case of a pedunculated schwannoma arising from the left aryepiglottic fold in a 80-year-old patient. The tumor was completely excised under direct laryngoscopy with the use of a $CO_2$ laser and subsequently confirmed as schwannoma. So, we report this case with a review of the literatures.

Background and Objectives : Patients with so-called 'functional voice disorders' who have structurally normal larynges and demonstrate muscle misuse in the larynx, and those with several interacting causes including habitual muscle tension, are probably better defined as having a 'muscle misuse voice disorder'. The purpose of this study was to analyze the voice and effectiveness of voice therapy in patients with functional voice disorders and to provide a guide for the treatment of functional voice disorder. Materials and Method : The records of 35 patients, presenting with functional voice disorder and receiving voice therapy during October, 2001 to September, 2002, were reviewed. Prior to voice therapy, the stroboscopic examination of their larynx, aerodynamic and acoustic analysis was done. The results of voice therapy were compared according to the patient's subjective, perceptual evaluation of voice, and maximal phonation time. Results : Patient's subjective, perceptual evaluation, and maximal phonation time showed superior results after voice therapy. Conclusion : The result of this study indicates that voice therapy is an effective treatment method of patients with functional voice disorder, especially muscular tension dysphonia.

Background and Objectives : Voice therapy has been used as a viable adjuvant to surgery and pharmacological therapy fir the management of voice disorders. The singing voice features a special brand of emotion, intensity, and energy so successful therapeutical approach requires the doctor is able to involve himself into the physical and psychic condition and artistic usage of the voice. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect and utility of singing therapy as an initial treatment for classically trained singers with voice disorders. Material and method : Twenty-one male and fifty-five female classic singers with voice disorders were treated with singing therapy. At first, abdominal breathing, resonant phonation, and relaxation method was trained, then after accessing each patient's singing abilities, treatment methods for each specific problems was applied. The results were compared according to age, sex, treatment duration, part, laryngeal pathology, patient subjective evaluation, perceptual evaluation of voice, and maximal phonation time. Results : Patients subjective evaluation, perceptual evaluation, pathologic findings of larynx, maximal phonation time showed superior results after singing therapy. Conclusion : Singing therapy changes the mode of respiration and phonation and enhances the vocal function and improves the laryngeal pathology, The result of this study indicate that singing therapy is an effective treatment method that laryngologists can use for classical singers with voice disorders.

The development of office-based, unsedated transnasal esophagoscopy (TNE) has proven to be a major technological advance and with time and experience the application of this technology is becoming more widespread. TNE has allowed otolaryngologists to perform a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in the office setting. Studies consistently demonstrate that the image quality and diagnostic capability of TNE is equivalent to conventional esophagoscopy. The modern TNE endoscopes offer high quality optics, air-insufflation, and irrigation capability through a 2-mm working channel, and the ability to perform biopsies and select procedures. In general, the role of TNE in the head and neck patient is three-fold : to screen for synchronous and metachronous esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) ; to differentiate post-treatment changes/symptoms from malignancy ; and to perform certain office-based procedures. TNE offers many specific advantages to the head and neck patient that are not afforded by conventional esophagoscopy. Because of surgical and postirradiation changes, many HNSCC patients have trismus or neck stiffness preventing completion of conventional transoral esophagoscopy. Perhaps most importantly, TNE provides enhanced patient safety, increased tolerability, better practice efficiency, and cost savings. For these reasons, TNE has become a particularly useful tool in the otolaryngologist's armamentarium.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to verify the necessity of endotracheal intubation through video laryngoscope and to provide basic data to inform the provision of video laryngoscope education. Methods: Eighty paramedic students participated in this study. A survey was conducted from November 5, 2018 to December 7, 2018. Data were analyzed with independent t-tests, and the chi-squared test. Results: The video laryngoscope is a highly usable instrument that can easily be applied during training. The instrument provides better visual evaluation of the normal airway (p=.004), the airway in case of cervical collar and head fixation (p=.000), and the airway in case of tongue edema (p=.000). The time of endotracheal intubation in the normal airway was significantly less with the video laryngoscope compared with the direct laryngoscope. The success rate of tracheal intubation was significantly higher in the video laryngoscope group than in the direct laryngoscope. Conclusion: This study suggests the necessity of education on endotracheal intubation through video laryngoscope in the professional airway maintenance training course of emergency department students. The video laryngoscope is easier to apply than the direct laryngoscope in cases of intubation in various clinical situations.
