Suspension laryngoscopy allows for bimanual surgery and a stable operating platform. Little information is known about oropharyngeal & vocal fold complications of suspension laryngoscopy. Because laryngomicrosurgery is dependent upon suspension laryngoscopy, surgeons should fully understand the risks of suspension laryngoscopy to properly educate and care for patients undergoing suspension laryngoscopy.
