title: [The review of anatomical and clinical terminology concerning vocal folds].
abstract: The review of the anatomical and clinical literature of the vocal folds was presented. The attention was paid on the lack of homogenous terminology in this subject. Different authors use different terms concerning the vocal folds: vocal cords, vocal lips and vocal folds. The necessity of developing common, current nomenclature of the vocal folds, also due to clinical reasons was emphasized.
