Abstract

Knowledge about the changes of the vocal folds during puberty in children has been focused upon in many cases. Döllinger et al. write that children demonstrate greater cycle-to-cycle variability in oscillations compared to adults [1]. Based on videokymography and high-speed videos, Cavalli et al. suggest changes of treatment of pediatric voice disorders because there are important differences between the developmental approach and disorders for surgical and therapeutic management [2]. As late as 2012, an evaluation of pathology was made by Martins et al. of 304 children from 4 to 18 years where the findings related to normal pubertal development were not commented on [3].
