In a patient with hyperophied adenoids, the voice abnormality that is seen is:

A
Rhinolalia clausa
B
Rhinolalia apea
C
Hot potato voice
D
Staccato voice
High-Yield Explanation
Rhinolalia clausa is lack of nasal resonance (hyponasality). It is seen in conditions which block the nose or nasopharynx as in case of allergic rhinitis, adenoids and nasal polpys. Palatal paralysis will lead to hypernasality and not hyponasality.
