OBJECTIVES: @entity1740 affect adults and @entity1 and have different causes in different age groups. The aim of the study is to present the etiology and diagnosis @entity7364 in a large population of @entity1 with this @entity1740 .for @entity7364 of a large population of dysphonic @entity1 . METHODS: We evaluated 2019 @entity1 with @entity7364 who attended the Voice Disease ambulatories of a university hospital. Parameters assessed were age, gender, profession, associated symptoms, smoking, and videolaryngoscopy diagnoses. RESULTS: Of the 2019 @entity1 with @entity7364 who were included in this study, 786 were male (38.93%) and 1233 were female (61.07). The age groups were as follows: 1-6 years (n   =   100); 7-12 years (n   =   187); 13-18 years (n   =   92); 19-39 years (n   =   494); 41-60 years (n   =   811); and >60 years (n   =   335). Symptoms associated with @entity7364 were vocal overuse (n   =   677), gastroesophageal symptoms (n   =   535), and nasosinusal symptoms (n   =   497). The predominant professions of the @entity1 were domestic workers, students, and teachers. Smoking was reported by 13.6% @entity1 . With regard to the etiology of @entity7364 , in @entity1 (1-18 years old), nodules (n   =   225; 59.3%), cysts (n   =   39; 10.3%), and @entity697 (n   =   26; 6.8%) prevailed. In adults (19-60 years old), functional @entity7364 (n   =   268; 20.5%), acid @entity7552 (n   =   164; 12.5%), and vocal @entity1127 (n   =   156; 12%) predominated. In @entity1 older than 60 years, presbyphonia (n   =   89; 26.5%), functional @entity7364 (n   =   59; 17.6%), and @entity4 (n   =   48; 14%) predominated. CONCLUSIONS: In this population of 2019 @entity1 with @entity7364 , adults and @entity1 were predominant. Dysphonia had different etiologies in the age groups studied. Nodules and cysts were predominant in @entity1 , functional @entity7364 and reflux in adults, and presbyphonia and @entity4 in the elderly.
