Treatment Outcomes and Adverse Events Following In-Office Angiolytic Laser With or Without Concurrent Polypectomy for Vocal Fold Polyps

Abstract

In-office angiolytic laser procedures can be an effective alternative treatment for vocal polyps, although with possible need for multiple treatment sessions and occasional occurrence of minor postoperative adverse events. Concurrent polypectomy following laser coagulation allows less laser energy delivery and reduces the risk of postoperative adverse events and the need for additional treatment sessions.
