Abstract

The laser as an alternative to open surgery of the upper airway has come to change the form of approaching the disease in this area, but it is still an expensive procedure that is not available to all services. For this reason, a new ways of approach to meet the same requirements both open as laser but at a lower cost surgery. We present a series of 30 cases performed over a period of 6 years for reasons as much tumor, which closed approaches through microsurgical dissection were performed using microelectrodes. Obtaining few complications and significant decreased hospital stay. Our considerations is it seems an efficient technique for such approaches.
