Abstract
Puberphonia is a common vocal disorder characterized by the persistence of high vocal pitch postpuberty. Affected individuals may suffer from social impediments that can markedly affect their quality of life. Voice therapy is invariably offered as a main treatment modality with a successful outcome. Other treatment modalities include laryngeal framework surgery, cricothyroid muscle chemodenervation, and injection laryngoplasty. The authors of this manuscript report the impact of injection laryngoplasty on the average fundamental frequency in three cases of puberphonia. © 2018 The Voice Foundation
