Tracheostomy closure

In this video we will show a classic technique for sealing an old tracheostoma that did not close spontaneously. It is usually a surgery performed under local anesthesia with or without sedation. It is generally divided into three layers: the skin around the tracheostomy, which will be the innermost layer, a layer of fat-fascia-muscle covering the previous suture, and finally, the...

Right neck dissection levels IIA, IIB, III and IV

In this video we show a neck dissection of the levels IIA, IIB, III and IV. After cutting the skin, subplatismal flaps are raised. Then, the anterior border of the SCM muscle is identified and the fascia cut. The SCM muscle is skeletonized and the internal jugular vein is exposed. The XI cranial nerve (accessory nerve) is located in the upper third of the SCM muscle. The tissue above...

Montgomery T tube replacement

In this video we show the replacement of a Montgomery T tube in a patient with a tracheal stenosis. We remove the old tube, and we intubate the patient. We place a laryngoscope, and we explore the subglottis and trachea with an endoscope. We then ask the anesthesiologist to leave the patient in apnea and we remove the endotracheal tube and place the new Montgomery T tube. Next, we place a...

Bilateral cordotomy

In this video we show a laryngeal microsurgery where we performed bilateral cordotomy in a patient with bilateral vocal fold paralysis with significant dyspnea. We cut with laser both vocal folds on their posterior third and we immediately see how the airway gets significantly wider posteriorly, which will help the patient with the breathing problems.

Total laryngectomy

In this video we show a total laryngectomy. The most commonly followed incision for total laryngectomy is the U-shaped incision. If possible, the tracheostomy incision is made separately. The subplatysmal flap is raised superiorly above the level of hyoid bone and inferiorly up to the level of the sternum and clavicular heads. We liberate the specimen by sectioning the strap muscles and the...

Endoscopic marsupialization of a Zenker´s diverticulum

In this video, we show the marsupialization of a Zenker´s diverticulum through an endoscopic approach using CO2 laser. We start by introducing the endoscope until we localize the diverticulum. We then cut the crycopharyngeal muscle with laser, which is the origin of the problem. As soon as the muscle ends, we stop cutting due to the risk of a fistula.

Mucosal bridge in the right vocal fold

In this laryngeal microsurgery, a typical mucosal bridge is shown in a 23-year-old patient with chronic dysphonia. In this case the bridge is located and resected. In this patient, during the same surgery, lipofilling was performed on the vocal fold afterwards (not shown in the video).

Plasmacytoma resection

In this video, we will show the resection of a plasmacytoma of the pre-epiglottic space. We start by detaching the infrahyoid muscles from the hyoid bone. We expose the cranial edge of the thyroid cartilage, and we continue to dissect above it until we find the mass. We carefully remove the mass with bipolar cautery and blunt dissection. We had to remove a part of the thyroid cartilage to have...

Total laryngectomy due to a non-functional larynx

In this video we will show a total laryngectomy due to a non-functional larynx. The patient had a history of treatment with chemoradiotherapy for a larynx cancer more than 10 years ago, and a hemiglossectomy, bilateral neck dissection and ALT free-flap reconstruction 5 years ago for a tongue cancer. The current symptoms are: severe dysphagia with aspirations, and even after placing...
