Microscopic Laryngeal Surgery

Microscopic Laryngeal Surgery

What is Microscopic Laryngeal Surgery ?

It is a minimally invasive procedure, used to remove abnormal growths like cysts and tumors or take their biopsy. It is also done to treat vocal problems, vocal cord defects, and/or diagnoses laryngeal cancer, treat trauma, fracture, and/or airway constriction. The procedure involves the use of a laryngoscope inserted through the mouth or nose to visualize the upper and lower airway. The advantages of the ‘micro’ laryngoscopy compared to conventional laryngoscopy are that there is quicker recovery, minimal to no harm to adjacent structures, and better visualization. The micro laryngoscopy can either be direct or suspension laryngoscopy.

  • Did when they were healthy. Hemodialysis helps control blood pressure and balance.
  • Important minerals, such as potassium, sodium, and calcium, in your blood.
  • Hemodialysis can help you feel better and live longer, but it’s not a cure for kidney failure.
  • You may be able to do hemodialysis at home. Normally, hemodialysis begins well before your kidneys have shut down to the point of causing life-threatening complications.

How is it done?

  • The procedure is done under general anesthesia hence the patient is adequately prepared before using vasoconstrictors and sedatives.
  • The professionals insert a laryngoscope through the nose or the mouth and pass it deeper till it reaches the airway. Visualization is done and access is gained.
  • Using sterile surgical instruments, passed through the laryngoscope, the growth is excised completely or partially based on the treatment procedure.
  • The laryngoscope is then slowly removed and the area dressed. The patient will be kept under observation and prescribed pain relief medication.
  • The patients usually respond well and quickly to the procedure. Post-treatment vocal and breathing exercises may also be advised.
