Abstract
This paper describes 120 cases with benign lesions of the vocal cord, such as the polyp and the nodule, treated by laser irradiation and application of Nd:YAG laser and optical fiber carried out through fiber laryngoscope under surface anaesthesia. One-hundred-eleven of the cases were cured, 9 improved, and 0 failed. This method is superior to other methods and has the following features: accuracy, rapidity, non-bleeding, painlessness, easy operation, rare complication, and good effect.
