LARYNGOSCOPY

A laryngoscopy is composed of the examination of images produced using a rigid endoscope to examine the larynx and vocal cords. The procedure is ambulatory and poses no risks.

The patient must remain seated to have it performed. Topical anesthesia is applied in the mouth and throat to reduce the nausea reflex in some people. After a few minutes, the tongue is pulled forward, and the endoscope is inserted until the vocal cords are visualized.

You will be asked to say some letters in a sustained manner, and to take a deep breath while the images of the vocal cords are observed on a monitor.
