This case report describes a 5-year-old girl with chronic dysphonia and high-pitched voice since birth. Vocal quality was noted to be harsh. Videostroboscopy revealed significant hyperfunction and a Type II congenital anterior glottic web. Endoscopic division of the anterior glottic web was performed with significant improvement in vocal quality and quality of life. This paper describes methods of analyzing, diagnosing, and treating anterior glottic web with a focus on quality of life. Also, unique acoustic and aerodynamic voice features are identified. No other descriptions of a voice characteristic for anterior glottic web currently exist in the literature.
本病例报告描述了一名5岁女童，自出生以来一直患有慢性发音障碍且嗓音高亢。注意到其嗓音质量粗糙。频闪喉镜检查显示明显的功能亢进和II型先天性前声门蹼。对前声门蹼进行了内镜下分离，嗓音质量和生活质量有了显著改善。本文描述了分析、诊断和治疗前声门蹼的方法，重点关注生活质量。此外，还识别出了独特的声学和空气动力学嗓音特征。目前文献中尚无其他关于前声门蹼嗓音特征的描述。
