What is Laser-Based Laryngeal Surgery?

Laser-based laryngeal surgery is a minimally invasive treatment option for early-stage vocal cord cancer, as well as benign growths, vocal cord paralysis, and abnormal scarring on the larynx. An endoscope or laryngoscope is used to visualize the desired area and the tip of a laser fiber emits light beams to remove damaged or lesioned portions of the larynx. In most cases, the endoscope passes through the mouth and down into the throat, where the larynx (voice box) is located.

Benefits of Laryngeal Surgery

Today’s technologically advanced lasers are extremely precise, preserving as much healthy tissue as possible. That means potentially less trouble speaking, breathing, and eating after healing from the procedure. Laser Laryngeal Surgery can be gentler and less invasive than conventional surgical excision, often resulting in less bleeding and discomfort.

Laser-Based Laryngeal Surgery Candidates

Anyone with laryngeal conditions may be considered for laser-based laryngeal surgery, so long as they are not pregnant or breastfeeding and have no medical issues such as uncontrolled bleeding disorders, which may increase surgical risks. Our premier laryngologist, Dr. Eytan Keidar, assesses each patient individually to determine whether laser-assisted surgery or alternative treatments are appropriate.

Consultation and Preparation

During a consultation, Dr. Eytan Keidar, board-certified otolaryngologist (head and neck surgeon) with additional fellowship training in Laryngology at the prestigious University of Miami, will meet with you to review your symptoms and medical history to determine if Laryngeal Surgery is appropriate. Both a patient listener and world-class physician, he will explain your treatment options in detail and answer all your questions. Candidates for laser-based laryngeal surgery must refrain from tobacco use and medications or herbal supplements that increase bleeding leading up to their procedures.

Results, Recovery, and Aftercare

Your individual recovery and aftercare protocol might vary based on the specifics of your procedure. Patients may either return home the same day or spend one or more nights in the hospital. Generally speaking, vocal hoarseness, tenderness, swelling, and difficulty swallowing can last anywhere from one to six weeks. You may receive medications to manage any discomfort experienced post-surgery and will likely need to modify your diet for several days. You will likely be recommended to start vocal exercises under the care of our in house Speech Language Pathologist.
