Microdebrider technique versusconventional microlaryngosurgeryfor treatment of vocal fold polyp

The present study is a prospective study to evaluate the voice outcome after removal of vocal fold polyp by using microdebrider versus the conventional micolaryngosurgery [CMS]. It was investigated 20 patients with vocal fold polyps. Those patients classified into two groups. The First Group was submitted to microdebrider technique and the second one wassubmitted to CMS for removal of polyp. All patients subjected to a protocol of assessment preoperative and two weeks postoperative. Both types of surgery had a good result that evidenced by stroboscopic and acoustic and aerodynamic assessment. The microdebrider technique showed some advantages than CMS but still CMS is easier and cheaper
