Abstract
|
|
|
|
Spasmodic dysphonia is a voice disorder that’s characterized by intermittent, involuntary tightening or constriction of the larynx during phonation.This paper describes the case of a 45-yr-old female who suffered from phonation difficulties along with posterior and anterior neck pain.She was diagnosed with adductor type spasmodic dysphonia, which is a chronic disorder involving hyperadduction of the vocal mechanism and a resultant vocal arrest.The neural innervation of the intrinsic laryngeal musculature and the cervical nerves too may well be amenable to intramuscular stimulation therapy.
