Conditions in Laryngology

• Microlaryngeal surgery: Almost every microlaryngeal surgery is done with the patient being asleep. The patient must be under the influence of anesthesia so that he does not gag with the laryngoscope in the place, so he doesn’t feel anything. During the surgery, the patient must be given the oxygen and the carbon dioxide produced in the lungs should be removed. This is usually done with a combination of the medications and also with the help of anesthetic gases. When the doctor is operating on the vocal folds, the endotracheal tube can get in the way of the procedure. There are a few ways to minimize this problem. The doctor will use a small tube and secondly the tube can be removed during the operation for some duration and replaced to supply the oxygen. Finally, jet ventilation can be used in which the oxygen is blown into the lungs under high pressure.

• Tonsillectomy surgery: There are various ways to remove the tonsils. The common method is known as cold knife dissection. In this case, the doctor will remove your tonsils with the help of a scalpel. Another common method to remove the tonsils involves burning away the tissues via the process which is called cauterization. Ultrasonic vibration is also used in tonsillectomy surgeries. Tonsillectomies take about half an hour. You will be sleepy during the process under anesthesia. You won’t be aware of the surgery and will not feel anything, no pain. When you wake up after the tonsillectomy surgery, you will be in the recovery room. The doctor will monitor your blood pressure and the heart rate once you will wake up.

• Adenoidectomy surgery: An adenoidectomy is done by the doctor who is specialized in nose, ear and throat surgery. The surgery occurs in the hospital under anesthesia. The adenoids are removed via the mouth so there is no need of any additional incisions expect where the tissues are removed. Most of the patients can go their home after the procedure is done but you should be in the surgical center for around five hours. The doctor will give you some instructions on what to expect with your health needs.
