Technic Of Laryngeal OperationsCategory: DIRECT LARYNGOSCOPY 2 Source: A Manual Of Peroral Endoscopy And Laryngeal Surgery Preparation of the patient and anesthesia have been mentioned under their respective chapters. The prime essential of successful laryngeal operations is perfect mastery of continuous left-handed laryngeal exposure. The right hand must be equally trained in the manipulation of forceps, and the right eye to gauge depth. Blood and secretions are best removed by a suction tube (Fig. 9) inserted through the laryngoscope, or directly into the pharynx outside the laryngoscope. For the removal of benign growths the author's papilloma forceps, Fig. 29, or the laryngeal grasping forceps shown in Fig. 17 will prove more satisfactory than any form of cutting forceps. These growths should be removed superficially flush with the normal structure. The crushing of the base incident to the plucking off of the growth causes its recession. By this conservative method damage to the cords and impairment of the voice are avoided. For growths in the anterior portion of the larynx, and in fact for the removal of most small benign growths, the anterior commissure laryngoscope is especially adapted. Its shape allows its introduction into the vestibule of the larynx, and if desired it may be introduced through the glottic chink for the treatment of subglottic conditions. It will not infrequently be observed that a pedunculated subglottic growth which is found with difficulty will be pulled upward into view by the gauze swab introduced to remove secretions. The growth is then often held tightly between the approximated cords for a few seconds--perhaps long enough to grasp it with forceps.
