Abstract

Objective: To explore the effect of micro-suture technology in laryngeal surgery.

Method: Sixty-one patients with benign laryngeal disease underwent microsurgery resection under general anesthesia, and the wound surface of the mucosa was sutured intermittently.

Result: The postoperative healing time was shortened, the cicatrix on the vocal cord mucosa was reduced, the voice quality was improved significantly and the recurrence rate was reduced.

Conclusion: The micro-suture technology is effective in improving the voice quality and surgery effect significantly.
