Abstract

The paper presents the results of laryngoscopy using a direct optic telescope and videofibroendoscope in 105 children aged 1 to 14 years with different abnormalities as sustained and recurrent hoarseness, worsened voice, and smarting chronic cough. Out of the total number of patients, there were 66 (62.9%) preschool children; 55 (53.3%) children were examined for chronic ENT diseases. The others were diagnosed as having asthma, chronic bronchitis, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, and gastritis with reflux esophagitis. In all age groups, 100 (95.2%) patients were found to have different combinations of endoscopic signs of chronic laryngitis with a different frequency; of them 18% had hyperplastic changes in the mucosae of the vocal folds and arytenoid junction as pachydermia, nodulation, and papillomatosis.
