Abstract

Micro Laryngeal Surgery (MLS) is a procedure where the larynx is seen with the help of endoscope and the view is magnified by use of an operating microscope. A minimally Invasive Technique, micro Laryngeal Surgery is a process that helps in the correction of the benign lesions of the larynx.

This is the procedure of choice in assessment as well as treatment of benign lesions of larynx. Study group comprise of 46 patients with age group varying from 14-54 years. Various abnormalities were detected among these patients, vocal cord polyp being the commonest.
