ABSTRACT
Objective:
To design an instrument for steadying instrument handling during microlaryngeal surgery using an operating laryngoscope.Method:
Our device design takes its cue (pun intended) from professional billiards players like our very own Efren "Bata" Reyes. The laryngeal tiririt (bridge or rake) draws inspiration from the billiards bridge (locally known as tiririt) used to extend the player's reach when the cue ball is too far to make an accurate shot.Setting:
The laryngeal tiririt was used and tested by senior residents in microlaryngeal surgeries done in our institution.Result:
The laryngeal tiririt greatly improved the accuracy required in laryngeal surgeries without adding up huge set up or expensive equipment. (Author)
