Abstract

Objective: To assess vocal function using the VHI10 score and Praat software in patients following supracricoid partial laryngectomy (SCPL) with CHEP at 3 and 6 months postoperatively at Cho Ray Hospital. Subjects and methods: All patients who underwent supracricoid partial laryngectomy with CHEP at the Otorhinolaryngology Department, Cho Ray Hospital. Results: All participants were male, with a mean age range of 60-69 years. The mean VHI10 scores at 3 and 6 months post-surgery were 25/40 and 15/40. Voice assessment at 3 and 6 months: an average F0 of 61.3 ± 5.2 Hz and 91.5 ± 3.7 Hz; mean jitter values of 4.3 ± 1.8% and 3.9 ± 1.3%; mean shimmer values of 16 ± 4.5% and 9.4 ± 3.2%; NHR of 0.6 ± 0.3 and 0.5 ± 0.1; and average MPT of 9.4 ± 3 seconds and 12.4 ± 2.1 seconds. Conclusion: At three months following SCPL with CHEP, the majority of patients exhibited significant voice disorders. However, by the six-month follow-up, notable improvements in vocal function were observed.
