PREOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Chronic laryngitis with polypoid disease
POSTOPERATIVE DIAGNOSIS: Same
PROCEDURE: Laryngoscopy with removal of polyps
After adequate premedication, the 60-year-old female patient was taken to the operating room and placed in supine position. The patient was given a general oral endotracheal anesthetic with a small endotracheal tube. The Jako laryngoscope was then inserted.
Large polyps were noted on both vocal cords, essentially obstructing the glottic airway when the tube was in place. The polyps appeared larger on the right cord. Using the straight-cup forceps, the polyps were removed from the left cord first. The polyps were removed from the right cord up to the anterior commissure. Very minimal bleeding was noted. This opened up the airway extremely well. The patient was extubated and sent to recovery in good condition.
