Abstract: Study Design: Case study.<br />Discussion: The origin of sulcus vocalis is debatable, it may arise from a congenital or acquired cyst that ruptures leaving a sulcus attached to the deep layer of the lamina propria. This has been hypothesized but never shown before.<br />Conclusion: In this article, we present the first videographic documentation of an intracordal cyst that over time may have become a sulcus vocalis.<br /> (Copyright © 2011 The Voice Foundation.
