We reviewed cases of early childhood hoarseness caused by vocal nodules and functional hearing loss as being possible manifestations of child abuse. This is a retrospective review set in two urban referral centers. The patients consisted of four children with vocal nodules and known histories of abuse, and four children with functional hearing loss and histories suggestive of abuse. Vocal nodules or functional hearing loss may be indicators of an abusive situation. Child abuse should be considered in the differential diagnosis of these problems.
我们回顾了因声带小结和功能性听力损失导致的幼儿期声音嘶哑病例，认为这些可能是虐待儿童的表现。这是一项在两个城市转诊中心进行的回顾性研究。患者包括四名有声带小结且有已知虐待史的儿童，以及四名有功能性听力损失且有虐待迹象病史的儿童。声带小结或功能性听力损失可能是虐待情况的指标。在对这些问题进行鉴别诊断时应考虑虐待儿童的情况。
