• Sommario/riassunto: This comprehensive and current review of the care of children with voice disorders includes an overview of anatomy and physiology of the pediatric laryngeal mechanism, associated neural controls, and phonatory behavior across childhood. The spectrum of evaluation techniques ranging from basic to innovative high tech instrumentation is presented. Evidence-driven treatment approaches for common as well as unique pediatric voice disorders is covered in a practical, case-based format.
