rigid laryngeal endoscopy
Examination of the larynx with a rigid (hard) endoscope is a high-precision diagnostic method used by an otolaryngologist for detailed examination of the larynx and vocal cords. Using special optics with strong lighting results in a magnified and high-quality image. This allows the specialist to notice even the smallest changes in the structure and motility of the vocal cords when diagnosing inflammations, nodules, polyps, paralysis or formations.
Laryngeal examination with a rigid endoscope is recommended for patients with:
Timely diagnosis allows you to more accurately identify the cause of the problem and initiate appropriate treatment.
at least 1–2 hours before the visit, it is recommended not to eat or drink;
inform your doctor about allergies (especially to anaesthetics), medications taken and whether there is a strong vomiting reflex – this will help your doctor choose the most appropriate approach.
perform local anaesthesia, if necessary, by aerosolising the mucous membrane of the pharynx to reduce sensitivity and facilitate the introduction of the instrument;
introduces the rigid endoscope through the mouth, accessing the area of the larynx, without touching the tongue or the walls of the throat;
asks to pronounce certain sounds to assess the symmetry and functional mobility of the vocal cords in action;
analyzes the image on the screen to immediately assess the position of the larynx, the mobility of the vocal cords, signs of inflammation, structural changes (polyps, nodules, formations).
a detailed explanation of the specialist’s conclusions and the results obtained;
instructions for medication, voice therapy, or physiotherapy (phonopedia)
a follow-up plan if additional diagnosis or monitoring is required.
