NCT04447456

Brief Summary

Patients with early-stage squamous cell carcinomas of the vocal cord can be treated in an equivalent way in terms of carcinology by surgery or radiotherapy. The study will be to analyse the vocal outcome at 5 years of these two types of management in order to define whether one is superior to the other on this criterion of voice quality after treatment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Voice Handicap Index

    The VHI is a self-administered questionnaire that provides a score ranging from 0 to 120 points validated in France and internationally based on the declarative answers to 30 items of the questionnaire. A high score corresponds to a voice felt to be of poor quality. This is a subjective assessment made by the patient.

    At 5 years

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Maximum Phonation Time

    At 5 years

  • Grade, Roughness, Breathiness, Asthenia, Strain, Instability SCORE (GRBASI Score)

    At 5 years

  • Acoustic Analysis by Vocalab software

    At 5 years
