Microlaryngeal Surgery

Microlaryngeal Surgery in Kanakapura Road, Bangalore

Manipal Hospital Kanakapura Road is one of the most preferred centres for microlaryngeal surgery in Kanakapura Road, helping singing professionals, voice actors, coaches, and teachers regain their voices after injury caused by nodules, polyps, and vocal cords. Our skilled ENT surgeons employ precision microlaryngeal techniques under operating microscopes, delicately removing lesions while preserving precious vocal cord function. Patients value our comprehensive voice assessments beforehand and dedicated speech therapy afterwards, ensuring not just surgical success but lasting vocal health. From early-stage vocal cord cancers to benign growths affecting daily speech, we handle each case with the care it deserves, helping patients return to classrooms, stages, and boardrooms speaking clearly once more.

How It Works

Microlaryngeal surgery is planned after a detailed voice assessment, and a laryngeal examination confirms a structural abnormality requiring surgical intervention. Evaluation includes flexible or rigid laryngoscopy, voice analysis, and review of symptom duration and vocal strain. Imaging or biopsy may be advised in selected cases.

On the day of surgery, general anaesthesia is administered to ensure patient comfort and immobility. A laryngoscope is gently positioned through the mouth to expose the vocal cords. Using an operating microscope, the surgeon visualises the larynx at high magnification. Fine micro-instruments are then used to remove or correct the lesion while preserving healthy surrounding tissue.

Bleeding is carefully controlled throughout the procedure. Surgical time varies depending on lesion size and complexity. After surgery, patients are monitored during recovery for airway stability and comfort. Operative findings are documented to guide postoperative voice care and follow-up planning.
