How Transoral Microscopic Cold Instrument Epiglottic Cyst Excision is performed
Mostly under general anesthesia, a laryngeal microscope/endoscope is inserted orally to expose the lesion. The cyst wall is cut and the cyst body is separated with microscopic scissors, forceps, and other cold instruments, with hemostasis as needed, and the adjacent mucosa and epiglottic function are protected as much as possible. Specimens are taken for examination, and postoperative airway, swallowing, and voice changes are monitored. The above is general health information, not medical advice; the specific plan is subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocol.
