Laryngoscopy
Laryngoscopy is an endoscopic examination of the larynx and throat, and it gives the close-up details of the larynx. During Laryngoscopy, the surgeon places a tube, laryngoscope, in the back of the throat. The procedure allows a deeper examination of the throat and getting a foreign body or sample for a biopsy. It is performed to look for the cause behind the prolonged symptoms in the throat or voice box. An ENT specialist is a right doctor to consult for Laryngoscopy. Laryngoscopy is the safest and most effective procedure, with a higher success rate of around 98%. An individual may suffer a sore throat or changes in voice if a surgeon has taken a biopsy, stiff neck, or nose bleed after Laryngoscopy.
