How Open Partial Laryngectomy is performed
Under general anesthesia, the larynx is exposed through a neck incision, and a partial laryngectomy is performed according to the extent of the lesion. Common methods include supraglottic or cricohyoidopexy partial resection. To restore the airway and swallowing passage, reconstruction is often performed with local tissue or free flaps as needed, and a temporary tracheal cannula and feeding route may be placed. Postoperative focus is on monitoring the airway, bleeding, and swallowing safety, and gradually implementing rehabilitation training. The above is general health information and not medical advice; specific information should be based on specialist evaluation and hospital protocols.
