SUBGLOTTAL STENOSIS can it be congenital and acquired? define.

Back 17

It can be congenital or acquired.
Congenital:
interruption of cricoid cartilage/ or conus elasticus during embryological development (level of cricoid)

Back 24

CONTACT ULCERS (GRANULOMAS)

Front 25

This organic disorders first cause is slamming together of arytenoid cartilages during LOW PITCHED phonation/ hard glottal attack, increased loudness, coughing, throat clearing
