Laser Surgery for Vocal Cord Nodules’ Removal

Vocal cord nodules (also known as “vocal fold” nodules by doctors) are growths on the vocal cords. These lumps are benign (noncancerous) and look similar to calluses on the hands.

 Nodules affect girls and boys of any age, and are a common cause of voice issues in both children and adults.

A raspy or hoarse voice is the most prevalent sign of vocal cord nodules. When your youngster speaks or sings, you may notice straining and pitch breakdowns in his voice.

If you rest your voice or undertake vocal therapy, especially the highly suggested laser therapy/surgery, these little, benign (non-cancerous) nodules typically go away.

Endoscopic laser vocal cord surgery is used to remove and cure a variety of disorders affecting the vocal cords, including these nodules.

It should be noted that not all laser devices can conduct professional nodule removal. Only the greatest, such as the LASER-1.2A, have shown to be so capable among otolaryngologists, which may explain why it is so commonly utilized in this area in particular.

The device has been specifically designed to perform better and gentler nodule removals, even at lower power.

As such, the improved cutting performance makes it ideally suited to all surgical applications especially those concerned with these small, wart-like growths.

What also makes the LASER-1.2A highly recommended by otolaryngologists is that it displays an accurate alignment and exact sighting during the treatment. All thanks to its green aiming beam.

The equipment is aided with a fiber guide laser for more precise results. For starters, it is suitable for a variety of endoscopic applications. Second, these particular fibers are sterilisable, which avoids cross-infections while ensuring a clean and bloodless operational environment.

The above feature is expected to reduce the thermal damage and to its peculiar interaction with hemoglobin.

Additionally, the complete absence of water absorption helps drastically reduce the overheating of the surrounding tissues. This should further reinforce the laser treatment’s efficacy.

Because of all of these sophisticated features, the LASER-1.2 A ensures substantially greater cutting efficacy than infrared lasers.

Lasers are a relatively recent addition to benign growth surgery. However, following their efficacy, laser use and applications have expanded rapidly.

In this article, we discuss the benefits of laser therapy and precisely the efficacy of LASER-1.2 A as a surgical laser device used for Vocal Cord Nodules’ removals.
