Electronic cigarettes are becoming more popular all over the globe. It is perceived by many as a risk-free substitute for traditional cigarettes. However, there is still uncertainty on the safety of using e-cigarettes and its potential as a smoking cessation strategy. This study aimed to determine how e-cigarette vaping affected vocal cords and voice quality. Almost two-thirds of participants are using E-cigarettes/vaping. The prevalence of positive laryngeal findings was higher in those with current E-cigarettes/vaping use than past users, but the difference was not significant. Cigarette smoking was a significant predictor of positive endoscopic findings and voice quality. Further research is still needed to fully explore the association of e-cigarette vaping on voice quality and vocal cord changes.
