Difficulties in Management of a Sessile Subglottic Polyp
Benign laryngeal polyps are usually managed with micro-laryngeal surgery. Occasionally surgery becomes challenging because of size of the polyp or its location.

| description | Benign laryngeal polyps are usually managed with micro-laryngeal surgery. Occasionally surgery becomes challenging because of size
of the polyp or its location. Maintaining the anaesthesia and the airway becomes difficult either during immediate management or during
excision. Upper airway obstruction still remains the major indication for tracheostomy in many centers. Nowadays Laryngeal tumour
has become the main indication of tracheostomy. Conditions like infections, trauma, benign lesions and prolonged intubation were
leading indications previously. Otolaryngologist has to decide a method, often on the spot. Here we are presenting such a case where
emergency tracheostomy was the only choice. |
