Management of Vocal Fold Leukoplakia

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 568-577, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Vocal fold leukoplakia (VFL) is a descriptive term for a white plaque in the true vocal folds (TVF). It is estimated at 10.2 cases per 100,000 males and 2.1 per 100,000 females. The most critical aspect of managing a VLF is achieving an accurate pathological diagnosis, since a white plaque in the TVF can have numerous differential diagnoses ...
