| Introduction: In the broad sense, voice refers to the sound we produce to communicate meaning, ideas, opinions, etc. In the narrow sense, voice, as in this review, refers to sounds produced by vocal fold vibration. Aim of the work: The aim of this work is to determine and analyze voice problems in patients with renal failure to establish a base line data about the size and distribution of the propable voice disorder in these patients in order to facilitate early detection and proper management of these voice problems. Subjects and Methods: This study included 110 individuals, age ranging from 25 years to 70 years. Results: I. Descriptive and comparative analysis: The individuals in this study included in two groups: The study group (GI): patients suffering from chronic renal failure (n=54). They were 38males(70.3%) and 16 females (29.6%),with a mean age of46.66 ± 12.65 and a range of 25 years to 70years. The control group (GII): This group included 56 individuals not suffering from renal failure. They were 40 males (71.4%) and 16 females (29.5%), with a mean age45.55 ± 11.05 and a range of 25 years 70 years. Conclusion & Recommendation: The results of our study revealed that subjects with chronic failure exhibit a clinical evidence of voice disorders and proving that there is interplay of different body systems and the larynx. | ||||
