Interviews:
Voice Journey Documentary
is a 27-minute award-winning documentary by Zhenya Kiperman about two singers with voice-threatening illnesses. As patients, both had to abandon singing to go through surgeries, periods of complete silence and extensive therapy to finding their voices again.
The film was produced and directed by an award-winning filmmaker and Drexel University film professor Zhenya Kiperman. It features the work of a noted otolaryngologist Dr. Robert Sataloff and combines detailed visual accounts of surgical procedures, including a specially created thyroplasty animation, with a moving narrative of patients’ experiences with their illnesses.

LARYNX PRINT: LOOKING INTO THE VOICE – Jean Abitbol, M.D.
Translated from French into English, a short introduction gives a history of laryngology and the anatomy and function of the phonatory structures. The non-scientific viewer will enjoy the music and the sequences of a variety of larynges involved in many normal and abnormal speaking and singing samples. The scientific observer will additionally enjoy the translations from French medical terminology into English.
Color and Sound (1983), approximately 30 minutes

PHONOSURGERY LECTURE NUMBER 1: THYROPLASTY I and III (and ARYTENOID ADDUCTION) – Nobuhiko Isshiki, M.D.
The four types of thyroplasty procedures are classified and the advantages of laryngeal framework surgery are given. An in-depth discussion of the thyroplasty I (vocal fold medialization) procedure used to correct imperfect glottic closure is given. A description is given of a combined operation of thyroplasty type I and thyroplasty type III used to correct vocal fold atrophy and sulcus. Videotaped highlights of the thyroplasty procedure are presented along with pre- and postoperative stroboscopic images of the patients. The arytenoid adduction procedure is discussed as is the combining of arytenoid adduction with thyroplasty type I to correct a large glottal chink. The vidoetape concludes with a short question-and-answer session.

PHONOSURGERY LECTURE NUMBER 2: MISCELLANEOUS PROBLEMS AND RESEARCH POTENTIALS – Nobuhiko Isshiki, M.D.
The effectiveness of the Silastic implants used in thyroplasty procedures is discussed. The focus is on pitch problems and how dysphonia develops. Highlights include the following surgical procedures: lowering vocal pitch, cricothyroid approximation, combined thyroplasty to correct an unusual functional-related dysphonia, thyroplasty type I for correction of spastic dysphonia, laryngeal web removal and mucosal transplantation. Concludes with a discussion of the acoustical analysis of the voice and applications for determining the ease of phonation, along with the importance of animal experimentation.

THE VOICE OF THE IMPERSONATOR – Robert J. Feder, M.D., F.A.C.S.
Impersonators Mel Blanc and Rich Little and ventriloquist Willie Tyler demonstrate their various characterizations and their normal voices. The patterns of vocal fold motion and the associated dramatic changes that occur in the supraglottic vocal tract are observed using flexible fiberoptic laryngoscopy.

THE VALUE OF LARYNGOSTROBOSCOPY IN THE MANAGEMENT OF VOICE DISORDERS – Murray D. Morrison, M.D.
Gives examples of male and female laryngeal images under normal and stroboscopic light. Pathologies illustrated include nodules, edema, fibrosis, polypoid thickening, contact granuloma, diplophonia, vocal fold scarring secondary to vocal fold “stripping,” vocal fold carcinoma, and glottic web.
Color and Sound (1983), approximately 13 minutes

VOCAL CORD VIBRATION – Minoru Hirano, M.D.
Vocal fold anatomy is illustrated using histological slides and schematic drawings. The mode of vibration is demonstrated using simplified schematic drawings. High-speed photography illustrates the vocal fold vibration of several male and female subjects with normal and abnormal larynges, then the vibration is simulated in schematic drawings.
