AbstractHoarseness is a common problem, typically of transient nature. When hoarseness does not resolve, or when it is associated with concerning symptoms, it is important to consider a wide differential and refer to an otolaryngologist. This article discusses the physiology of the voice and possible causes of dysphonia, and explores when it warrants further work-up by ENT. A discussion of diagnostic techniques and the myriad of tools to treat hoarseness follows. Additionally, the role of reflux in dysphonia is examined with a critical eye to aid in accurate assessment of the patient's complaint.Copyright © 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
