Specializes in Pediatric ENT and Head and Neck Surgery

Microsurgery: Vocal fold cysts are very small cysts under the surface of the vocal fold. Their small mass is enough to make one hoarse. Surgery involves careful microsurgery in the area to remove the cyst while not disturbing anything else that gives you your unique voice. This is done with general anesthesia to do it as carefully as possible. You go home the same day and follow closely with your laryngologist.
