Journal/Book: Rev Laryngol Otol Rhinol Bord. 1989; 110: 391-2.

Abstract: As regards to 24 singers under observation traited for dysody (14 lyric singers, 3 amateur chorus singers and 7 pop singers), one deduces the following points: almost all the singers traited are professional. The lyric professional singers seek medical advice for minor lesions or simple dysfunctions, as early as needed. In the classical amateurism, patients are not adequately inform about the risk of vocal strain. They seek medical advice for secondary lesions. The first two groups are treated with good results. The majority of pop singers consult medical practitians, for surgical lesions. The results of such treatments are frail.
