摘要
Spastic Dysphonia or spasmodic dysphonia has been shown to be a focal laryngeal form of dystonia. Review of our 2556 cases of dystonia and 562 cases of laryngeal dystonia reveals similar male/female ratio, Jewish/non-Jewish ratio, family history, EMG data, and percent focal, segmental and general cases to be the same. Patients with the adductor form have a staccato, jerky, squeezed, labored, hoarse or groaning voice. In the abductor form, patients have a breathy, effortful voice with aphonic, whispered segments of speech. Compensatory forms may confuse the diagnosis. Fiberoptic videostroboscopy, EMG, and voice spectrograms are very useful for diagnosis.
