Benign conditions are more common than malignant. Proper knowledge of clinical profile and evaluation is necessary to treat the cause. Objective It was conducted with the aim to study the clinical profile of patients with hoarseness of voice. Materials and Methods It was a descriptive cross-sectional study of 2 years conducted at Department of ENT at Tertiary Health Care Hospital, India. Patients aged above 10 years presenting with hoarseness of voice were included in the study. After detailed history related to sociodemographic particulars, clinical examinations including Hopkin’s rod examination in all patients and direct laryngoscopy, and radiological and histopathological examination were performed whenever indicated. Results Out of total 100 patients, maximum patients (32%) were in the age group of 21 to 30 years. There was slight male preponderance with male:female ratio of 1.17:1. Laborer (29%) was the major group affected in terms of occupation. Most common predisposing factor was smoking (35%). Commonest etiology for hoarseness of voice was chronic laryngitis (20%). Conclusion Hoarseness of voice as a symptom should never be ignored as its etiology may range from simple infection to malignancy. At our tertiary care center majority of patients come from rural area. Most of the etiological factors found in our study were treatable medically or surgically.
